Mug of coffee Mornin' Cal!

Right on schedule, the wind is picking up. Looks like mom has re-positioned herself facing "into" the wind.

Mug of coffee Good morning Ayer's,

Mom is on the sunrise clear nest facing the camera at 6 o'clock. This Lady has some beautiful dark markings on her face. She looks down at her eggs then looks all around. She's got a little tailwind or breeze.

It looks like maybe the wind knocked the camera into a new positionTitter
One O' on the nest now but I can't tell which one. It's still windy but the temperatures were a bit warmer than yesterday.Once again, all looks well at the nest.

Mug of coffee Good morning Ayer's,

Thanks much for the evening report yesterday, Jude. Grin

6:20 am,
Both Mom and Pops are on the nest. Mom left for a break. Pops did some wing flapping, rolled the eggs with his beak then settled in with a body roll.

ClappingCal, Great to see the progress through photos this morning! Thank you so much.
I noticed your signature "South of Montana, USA". It made me smile.Grin
Hope you are going to have a great day!
I'm doing yard work today. It's an awesome weather day for us here in NH so must take advantage. It's New England and one never knows when the weather will change again.Don't Know

Have fun playing in the dirt today Jude. Titter I need to get busy outside too.

About my last s'cap: Although I would imagine that Mom was ready for her morning break, it looked like Pops was encouraging her to get up and leave. He did a lot of wing flapping over the eggs before he settled in. Made me think he was all happy to be able to care for their eggs. Grin

Hey Cal, It does look like pops is proud of his parental role.Smile These O's have been good parents. I enjoy seeing them interacting with each other. All seems quiet at the nest this evening.
