Tristan & Isolde are a Eurasian Eagle Owl couple that are followed by a webcam. The area unfortunately also has raccoons. But I’m hopeful that the new location is safer and they are able to raise some chicks.

Experience the fascinating world of eagle owls up close with the live streams from our eagle owl webcams! Immerse yourself in their natural habitat and observe their breeding, foraging and many exciting behaviours in real time.

    Bayley and Joshua the Great Horned Owls really showed me how tough it is to take care of a nest last year. There were some dramatic fights with eagles, and there was such a variety of food to sustain everyone while being exposed to snow and rain. It is a tough life, especially since the mom can’t really leave very much. They’re all so reliant on each other and it looked like a ton of dedication.

      It’s like that for a lot of parents - species doesn’t really matter. Two years ago another pair of EEO lost their chicks to a raccoon and viewers saw it happening over the webcam feed.

        There is always a risk viewing the animal cams. Especially with bird flu and secondary poisoning these days. At least the racoons are a natural hazard, and racoons need to survive too.

          It is. But I have to admit I would intervene (non-lethal of course), if I see a predator aiming for birds in my area. Especially if it’s raccoons that aren’t native or cats.

            Add a little remote controlled air jet by the nest. PFFFFFT!

                Lol I’ve been daydreaming about if for the last month as the blackbirds have been storming my feeders and cleaning them out.
