SWFL Eagles 10-30-25. M15 & F23 Evening POND RENDEZVOUS & MATING! + 2 ABC FISH GIFTS! 🐟🎁🐟

Video opens with F23 arriving to the upper branches. M15 arrives with fish gift #1. F23 flies to the nest to receive her fish. She takes the fish to the DSPS (drive side pond snag)to eat. M15 conducts his first of four Nest Tests in this video. When done eating, F23 returns to the nest. They work together in the nest. F23 moves to the treetop branch, and M15 joins her for the first of two matings in this video.

Later, M15 brings a second fish gift for F23. She joins him in the nest to receive her fish gift, which she takes to the office oak to eat. When done eating, F23 flies to the pond for sips. M15 joins F23 on the pond bank for mating #2 in this video. Both get sips at the pond, then M15 moves to F23's side for adorable moments. F23 flies back to the nest. M15 joins her there, bringing a delivery on grass for the nest. They work together in the nest, and M15 conducts the last of his four Nest Tests. F23 leaves for the evening, and M15 follows her out. Time stamps below, if interested.

The rails have been built up well during the rebuilding phase. Soft nesting material/grass is being brought in regularly now. M15 and F23 conduct nest tests multiple times a day, working to ensure the nest is comfy and perfect for egg laying, incubation, brooding, and raising eaglets. M15 and F23 have increased matings in cam view, as expected, and that may increase further as the time for egg laying gets closer. M15 and F23 also mate out of cam view. F23 laid her first egg on 11-8-24 last season, so that is the time window we will be watching for.
