Didn't see any bopping.
Also haven't seen a 3rd bobblehead and haven't had a clear view of the egg.

This is a bit of an experiment - animations (mini-videos embedded in a post) can be useful for showing activity - but may cause issues because they do move - or may be big enough that they slow the loading of a page.

This is an animation put together by Lori from the Maine Windows-on-Wildlife forum, showing the big stick arriving on the Two Harbors nest in the middle of the night. We had a bit of a scare, because it looked as if K82 might have stepped on their chick while trying to get out from under the branch - but fortunately little chicks are usually very resilient, and the little bobble was bobbing away this morning.

If this causes problems, please let me know - or remove it and then let me know. Thanks!

Holy Toledo Judy! That is something else! Yikes. Thank goodness all is well there.
Thanks for posting that.
