And the winner is...
Patti Young from Allentown, PA is the winner of the "Name the Eaglets Competition"!!
Patti teaches ninth grade Biology and twelfth grade Anatomy & Physiology at Dieruff High School where her students have become "eagle addicts" and have enjoyed watching the eaglets grow and prosper. We thank each of the students for tuning in and cheering on our raptors.
Patti was the first to submit the names of The Three Musketeers: Athos (eaglet #1), Porthos (eaglet #2), and Aramis (eaglet #3) . We had other cam watchers submit these names, but only the first can be eligible for the prize. Patti will receive a Blackwater eagle cap and certificates of appreciation from Blackwater Refuge and WildCam.com.
The Refuge staff thought that these were fitting names since our band of three eaglets have stuck together through thick and thin. Congratulations to Patti, and much thanks to all our contestants for giving us their time and sharing their creativity with us. We had a terrific turnout!
By the way, our cam watchers might want to hang on to their names in case we are lucky enough to have another "Name the Osprey Chicks Competition" this summer.
As a thanks to all the cam watchers who entered, we're offering the special desktop wallpaper featured below, which shows our intrepid musketeers as they went from little egg to mighty raptor. Follow the instructions below to put it on your desktop, and thanks again for entering!
Extra note: Craig Koppie was kind enough to offer his time today to answer many of our questions regarding the Vermont hacking move and the taking of the second eaglet. I'll be posting his answers in the next day or two in our Web Log.
