Thanks Mary it sure looked like a pip to me too! but we still don't have a chick!

Great job Scott, I love seeing wee ck fly by. That was another nice catch and the two Metras is very neat hehe

4:56 pm



5:03



6:06

she's deep in shadows now

6:18pm
Metra gets up to preen


6:21pm
The egg or (maybe chick) with the arrow pointing to it, moved as
Metra either tried to roll it or separate the two eggs??

Hi guys!! I have a wee chick in the Estonia nest!!

7:13pm
Metra gets up looks down at the eggs, preens a little and then leaves the nest.


7:21pm
Can see what looks like a pip hole, cause it hasn't moved.


But I also see a large bug crawling over the egg.

Hi Rose I think we still have eggs but lets hope you seen it breaking out!

woooohoooo Mary!! I just paid your sweetlet and you a visit

7:35 pm Metra up for a stare

7:24pm
Metra returns through the 3:00 door. CK starts up with it's noise as soon as Metra
enters the nest, but quiets down when Metra gets back down on the eggs.

Rose I didn't even know she was gone! Some pretty strong winds are kicking up now and I think I hear rain hitting the cam box

7:58 pm



8:13 pm I took this off the cam when it was full size (don't normally cause they're blurry), I just don't know what's going on



8:24 our sweetie girl was poking around the eggs but I didn't see any signs of movement



8:52 she was up again and I went to full screen, at one point I'd have swore I seen I big hole in the one and it looked black inside as in empty. She was poking and rolling quite a bit then back down. No idea When I come back later for the date and a new day, it will be day 45 for egg 1

3:46 she was bent over reaching in the bowl for probably close to a minute time but no visual of the bowl.

4:12 she's reached in two more times but nope, she's hiding the bowl. Just up again and I seen one egg for sure but that was it

4:18 geee I don't know, looks like there's shell missing but there's no chick in the bowl that's for sure! We're at 45 and 42 days



she sure is acting hatch-like, up and look back down...up and look back down. She's up again 15 min's later. Poor girl it will break my heart if she doesn't get a baby cause she's been so dedicated as a Mom. Come on chicklet, make us all happy!

4:53 she rolled the eggs again and back down

goooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaal!!!

5:26 sweetbeak is still down on the eggs. ck was at it a while ago but stopped. ooops I posted that and whilst I was doing it Metra left and ck is at it again! She's back in 5 min's and down straight away. I swear I seen something move in the bowl. Something white

I think ck just flew by the nest again but I was looking at the game and only caught it out the corner of my eye. She's got her feathers in a bunch about something, what I have no idea.

5:44 Metra down and quiet

woooohoooo Canucks!!!

6:08 Metra down and finally ck just went silent! I guess I have to leave chick-watch to somebody else cause I'm done. Pleeease be a chick here when I get back
