Three eggs - 5 September

The arrival of the third egg came in the early hours of the morning our time. By the time I woke up and got to my computer, someone on Facebook had told us there is a third egg.

For the past four years now, Pot Plant Owl has only laid three eggs, so this should be it now. Spotted Eagle Owls can lay up to four eggs but it depends on the availability of a good supply of food.

Judging by the 'well-rounded' figure that Pot Plant Owl has got at the moment, there is a chance that she may lay a fourth egg.

I will be chatting on the Ustream chat site as soon as the stream and chat are snychronised.

Good Morning all!
Birdofprey, thanks for the update from Pot Plant Owl. I noticed Mom seems a bit puffy, so I will closely review the video I kept going during the night which is wee hours of the morning in Africa! So far since I got up, Mom has been laying in pretty much the same postion except for a little egg rolling with her back to us.


12:00pm- A nice sunny day for Mom incubating her eggs.

Good Morning Potted Owl viewers.

Birdofprey.. Thank you for the update.. will be interesting to see what happens.!

Mom is quietly incubating the eggs.


I was wondering about what they were doing with the umbrella.. now we know for sure.. found this on the blog also..

Good Morning Bev!:hello:
