The eaglecam is offline.
As many eagle viewers are aware, on Sunday, July 27th, 2008, the pine tree that held the original Barton Cove Eagle nest blew over
during a passing storm. It was confirmed by Massachusetts Fish and WildLife that in 2009, the eagle pair did rebuild their nest at a new location
in a red oak tree 100 feet west of the old nest. We have a new eagle cam installed in this new tree but it is not currently functioning.
Efforts to restore the Barton Cove Eagle Cam for the 2010 season were unsuccessful. Although the camera transmitted pictures briefly during a test period with a portable power supply in mid-February, the camera was not transmitting images when connected to the main solar panel power supply a week later.
Since it is now nesting season, and local eagle viewers state that it appears that the eagles may be incubating an egg, no further work will be performed on the island until early fall.
We will post new information as it becomes available.
