SWFL Eagles ~ M15 & F23 Work On Nest Before Cat 5 Hurricane Milton Threatens To Hit Florida! 10.8.24

[@ladyhawk]

Hurricane Milton is currently out in the Gulf of Mexico & has escalated in intensity very quickly to become a category 5 hurricane. Winds of 180 mph have been recorded as it makes its way toward the coast of Florida. The path where Hurricane Milton is expected to hit is from North Ft Myers up through Tampa Bay before it heads across the central part of Florida. This has been called the storm of the century and everyone is taking extreme precautions to protect and prepare for this storm. It is expected to hit sometime in the early evening on Wednesday Oct 9th. As viewers of the nest, be prepared for the loss of the internet connection to the cams, power outages, flooding in the area surrounding the nest. Back in 2022, Hurricane Ian hit the Ft Myers area and Harriet and M15 lost their nest. Immediately after that hurricane, it took them 2-3 days to return to the nest tree. Upon seeing their nest destroyed, they began the task of rebuilding it and began nestorations and rebuilt their nest in time for egg laying in November. In fact, they had the nest structure up in as little as two weeks! If M15 & F23 lose their nest, they will rebuild it as well. After Hurricane Ian hit, we did not have the cams up for three weeks. We don't know if the cams will be down for that long again but we must be patient during this time with the SWFEC team & Pritchett's family. We pray for the safety of all the people that are impacted by Hurricane Milton. Also we hope that M15 & F23 will hunker down safely and hope their nest is spared. Please stay safe during these next few days until the hurricane passes and services can be restored.

Thank you, @Lady Hawk, for the warning. I pray Milton will be gentle on Florida, all humanity, and wildlife. Our Eagles are resourceful definitely but I just wish M15 didn't have to rebuild again. Much love and many prayers for all on this path.

[@cristinamora7791]

Nestorations I love that ❤ They are smart they will fly away to skip the hurricane.

[@Ider4_Ever]

Precious souls. May Harriet’s spirit, along with her Eaglets, watch over this beautiful space, tree and nest. 🪹 🦅 ❤

[@roncaruso931]

The hurricane will probably destroy their nest. Are you concerned about human life?

[@juliehill3101]

​@roncaruso931 This channel is based on a Bald Eagle nest, so we direct our comments to that subject. Naturally, we want humans to be spared any hardship from the storm. But perhaps you should look for a channel that caters more to your interests if this subject is not to your liking.

[@bkgarr6041]

​@@roncaruso931Yes of course we are saying prayers for human life. The eagles and other wildlife don't know what's coming at them. It's horrible what these hurricanes are doing.

[@hopeisback9171]

​@@roncaruso931every single *LIFE* is important 'cause all LIFE's are *GOD's* creation! Therefore your question is out of subject!

[@terrabyte74]

My prayers are with these beautiful darlins❤

Praying continually for everyone in the path of this storm, and for our beloved eagle couple! ❤ I checked in earlier today and found M15 on the nest, so I kept the channel up to spend some time with him. Sounds crazy, I know, but he is so special! ❤ I hope we all meet again soon. Stay safe, everyone!
