7:35 per Reese on the chat:

Reese:
Security system went down about 4:30am on camera, so no camera this morning. Should be back up about 9am

Cam is on!

A few scaps of Dad in the nest and on the love branch this morning:

12:30pm

Dad was on and off the nest at least three times in a 5 minute span -

Here he is leaving - an image I haven't captured before

Rear view


Making the banking turn


A half a minute later he's back

2:24 - 2:30

DT flew onto the nest. Stood looking about sharply. Called when she first landed.

A close up shows she's been eating, looks wet, and a good view of breast where a brood patch would show

4:04 pm

Dad returned to the nest with another stick. After arranging it to his satisfaction he has decided to rest in the nest bowl

4.40 DT on the nest...

Hi BET...I was just looking back at your earlier pic of DT and find it interesting that she still has the marks on her nose in the same spot.

4:40pm

DT arrives on the nest - glaring at some unseen item


She moves up front and another good close up of her chest


and I would not want to be the object of this stare

5:04 more mating
