7:13 pm the time on the west cam is off several minutes. Shadow grabbing the fish with adults at the center pole and far right tower.

That is weird. The time on the W cam is ahead of itself........by about a half hour.

I know... he seems to loose patience with it too quickly. At least he's holding it down with his feet tonight, not like the other night. Seems he has more patience for poking around for small bits instead.

7:26 pm Shadow drags the fish over to the back of the nest and picks at it. Then Shadow is back on the other side of the nest picking around the edge of the nest.

Yeah, Jean, that happened a couple of days ago early in the morning but after say an hour, the time righted itself. So guess it will do the same.

Hi Marianne..........Shadow's beak is opening slightly....he is making some squeals........but let's hope Sunny is there too. It just doesn't make a lot of sense that he doesn't come to the nest if he is home. Unless............he's been well fed all day.

When all the squeeing was going on, I didn’t see Shadow’s mouth move unless the sound is out of sync. He
/ she sure isn’t moving and keeps looking up.

I know, but I just keep wondering if he’s way up top or under the nest and can’t figure out how to get home. Guess it’s a wait and see game. Did Kathy make it to the nest? Think Darlene said she was going to have a look.
