It was another cold start at minus 12 and I had expected more eagles than turned up.  In fairness there were about 40 and at least that many at another site a mile or so away.  

We had about a dozen people on site with two from Moncton and two from Quebec City.  Welcome to all.  The first feeding got off to a slow start with the eagles taking 5 - 10 minutes to come down and a fairly tame aerial display at first.  However, there was good action once they came to ground.

A similar delay greeted the second feeding at 10:30 but I think both the ground and aerial displays were better the second time around.  The ground action was particularly hectic.  There were lots of eagles in the trees and I estimate 50+ eagles for the second feeding.

I am not going for a third feeding this week unless we get a particularly long and deep cold snap.  I think the eagles have been well fed and I think that this has reduced their appetite.  So,it will be 8:30 and 10:30 tomorrow.  If you're from out of province please let me know as I'd like to thank you personally for taking the trouble to visit us!
