Applies to incubation /brooding periods once chicks hatch standing in or on the side of the nest is normal. Absence from nest also common A. The alpha numeric codes in parenthesis correspond to FRNBES behavior codes Please include additional notes and comments below: An adult bald eagle (A1) was observed incubating and one adult bald (A2) was observed perched in trees south of nest at the start of the survey at 8:20 am. At 10:26 am, A1 left the nest to perch in trees to the south and A2 began incubating until 11:18 when A1 returned for another incubation exchange. A1 incubated for the remainder of the survey. Several red tail hawks were observed during the survey. Construction activities were consistently performed in Zones A and B, with work including framing, using nail guns, and trucks moving about with back up alarms.
