Or if you are that web cam mounted up there to the right...
Apparently my neighbor went up there to help band the eaglets.
Edit: he was on the ground.

So not sure what happened last week but as of Tuesday night we saw momma bird sitting on the nest and the front door camera shows her flying back and forth feeding them too.
The last picture I took was Monday morning and they barely had any feathers. Sometime between Wednesday and Thursday they are all gone.
Doesn’t seem like it was anywhere near where they could have flown away and I didn’t find any traces of any kind of predator stealing them from the nest. Any other kind of major movement would have been picked up by the front door camera since it even catches squirrels walking by.
Totally stumped and a little sad they are gone wife wanted to see them all fuzzy with baby feathers. Oh well that’s nature I guess.

I check in on this every few days, really cool to watch the progression. Mama is a tough bird.
They did a really nice job preserving this nest, and setting up the cam with the tower replacement.

According to google search the mom birds can’t/don’t move the babies so it’s more likely another type of bird snatched them. And somehow the camera didn’t capture it.
The whole wreath/nest was moved even before she laid the eggs and after I moved it we watched her build it up to get it ready. I was worried moving it would scare her off but it didn’t since she laid the eggs after that and they all hatched.
Oh well one of nature’s mysteries.

Blue Jays will do that, both eggs and nestlings.

When we came back from vacation a few weeks ago, this nest was half knocked down and there were no birds or eggs to be found. I left the best there just in case.
Then last week I started seeing the Robin using the best again, and this morning found more eggs.
