I cannot get cam right now. But I must be dense because it looked O.K. to me. Eggs come in all shapes, sizes and colors

March 29 Palm SONday

Blackdog

2.00 pm several times the falcon has flown in as if being chased, seems hyper
2.15 pm BOTH flew into box for their peep n bow
3.00 pm Another peep n bow - too cute!
'Where do you WANT the egg'
'over here would be nice'
'over there, but but but - well, ok, over there'
'thankee darlin - and - when?'
'you'll be the first to know!'

4.14 pm DID SHE LAY AN EGG?
I did NOT see an egg - but I noticed she was standing still a long time, and now laying
May not know til tomorrow - is there - or isnt there??


EDIT
no - I just thot it odd she'd stood so long - then laid in incubate position.
sorry false alarm - blame the falcon! lol

March 31 Tuesday

Blackdog Frannie
No denying this is the cleanest, most pleasant box to watch. It appears larger
6.00 am She move to outer perch. She'd been perched on box edge for 3 hours.
6.13 am He came in, peep n bow, she left, he stayed inside box. Evidently this is normal for this pair.
8.00 am Mating on the highbar lol
8.15 am Very lengthy peep n bow, HE is doing all the talking, he exits, she stayed, mumbling to herself.
- I wonder what they argued about.
9.10 am Yet another peep n bow - both fly to highbar for more - um -fertilization
3.00 pm someone's there
- This cam has gone wack today - so did king
5.45 pm cam is still wack - no pic
- Nora got cam around 8.30 - I am zzzzzzzzzz then lol

king
7.00 am The queen of King is sitting inside looking out
3.00 pm someone's there
- a few times I couldnt get this cam at all

sherco
7.15 am a little cutie flew in, stood while, perched
7.45 am both fly in for a VERY SHORT peep n bow - I got em!
- he entered first and called her in
3.00 pm someone's there


PEEP n BOW ritual differs
GSB - female calls male in and it lasts awhile and he exits
Blackdog - female calls, male enters, she leaves, he stays - they sure dont have much of a show
Sherco - he enters first, ritual very short


GSB 1 EGG Mar 29 Temp 36
She stood near egg over nite

Yes, sky - I call that the highbar. They mate up there! :egg14:

:wave
