Squeee! Live stream from Decorah within an hour at http://www.ustream.tv/decoraheagles.
The RRP Cam crew has been busy the past few days to repair/replace/install new equipment and cables to the camera shed, and carrying on Bob Anderson's visions and goals. As you will recall, Bob wanted to switch cameras to HD quality this year, and we had to contend with equipment issues and infrastructure that knocked out the live view from N1, and took out the cam also at N2 and the top of that tree.
Work started today at N1, and testing of equipment is performing well. In a day or two, the team will start installing cams at N2B. It is hoped that Mom and Dad Decorah will choose the starter nest that was provided for them, and it is also our hope that in the event they choose to build their own nest nearby that the PTZ cam (point-tilt-zoom) will be able to provide a view for us ... unless they build directly behind in the blind spot where the cam would be mounted. Keep your fingers crossed that all goes well for a viewing season this year.
One other bit of news from Executive Director John Howe who reports that the food treats left in the nest for Mom & Dad after the starter nest install were taken. So either Mom or Dad (or both) have been in the N2B nest.
