They would probably all be happier (& safer) if DC stuck with Piggott & Beauty partnered with UT. Of course, that would mean DC would have to give up that part of his territory & being a typical male, I don't think he's going to do that.

I don't think so either Cat.

I'm sorry. I really LOVE DC.. I really do. I want this to work out so much... for all involved. I think for us, we just have to get familiar with the dynamics, then maybe we will know what to expect.

I'm sorry.

Kathy - Bs falcon report -- Leaving pigott on the west extension opposite cubby

No need to apologize. I think we try to be honest with each other here & it is very frustrating for all of us.

Thanks.

I just feel bad, and I think we all do. I don't want to offend anyone and I can understand how we all feel.

I'm trying not to apply my emotional side to this, but it's so hard, especially after all we've already been through this year at this site!

Okay. I'm going to shut up now.. NO need rehashing what everyone feels or thinks..

Its taking DC a while to get here, so hopefully he's hunting for Beauty's dinner on his way.

WanderingFalcon (Carol P.): Leaving DT. B at the NB. No sign of any other falcons at this time.

I wonder if DC has a 'man cave' like Jack does...somewhere he roosts at night away from both females.

Maybe, so he doesn't have to listen to them whine!

:lol:

I was thinking back to last year. Didn't Beauty lay in the late afternoon and DC didn't even come in until the following morning. I remember wanting to see his reaction and he never came home that afternoon. I had to see it in archive pictures. I'll have to go back to the archives. Was just getting some stuff ready for dinner & about to do dogs.

Okay - Just checked the archives from last year.

Beauty laid her egg late in the afternoon of 5/16. Carly reported it on the forum at 5:31PM ET - egg.

DC never returned until the following day 10:29AM - 5/17!

ETA: Here's a tweet I posted from 5:59pm ET on 5/16 "egg day":

Joyce: DC is under the SE wing. MAK, Carol, KathyO and me cheering on TSB for B.

So, this may be "normal".

I'm such a dork.. I didn't think I remembered him seeing the egg for the first time last year, but I reported it.. OMG where is my brain?

Cams are down this evening.

Beauty stayed in the nest box until 10pm, at which time she jumped to the top of cam 4. It's almost 2am and as far as I can tell, she's been there the entire time.

She a good mama.

:girlyes:

B's there now & it looks like she's eaten. What a time for the streaming cams to go down! :girlsad3:

Live cams are back up, and Beauty is busy preening on the bar in front of the nest box. Cleaning up from breakfast, I do believe.
