The male at our Harrison Mills bald eagle cam nest disappeared partway through the 2017 nesting season, we think after a fight with other eagles who came into his territory. Mrs Honeycomb (the pair were named the Honeycombs by the woman who sponsored the installation of the cams) successfully raised her two eaglets alone, and left for the usual fall break. She’s back, and we haven’t seen her partner from previous years, but there does seem to be a new, slightly larger male who has been courting her, and we’re hoping he’ll come to the nest soon so we can have a closer look. Here they are shown sharing her favorite perch by the river. There are lots more pictures and observations here – https://hancockwildlife.org/forum/viewtopic.php?showtopic=1029822
