7:52 am Trooper back to working on the sticks at the rail. Ma is on the long branch. The wind is blowing but looks like there maybe a break in the clouds. Hope so.

7:56 am Ma doing a bit of preening and Trooper is poking at the sticks. Bless his heart. He can't get them to break.

8:01 am think Trooper is fighting a losing battle with that limb. He pushes it down and it pops back up.

8:02 am Ma flies from the long branch and touched the outer branch as she flew. Didn't get a s'cap of Trooper flying but he left about two minutes after Ma.

8:21 am on my goodness, there's Ma on an outer branch. Of course the last place I decided to check. Gotta make a note of that. :) Trooper still working on the railing.

I should have mentioned it has been reported that the west cam is frozen at 4:22 am. This is the reason I am using the cams for the s'caps. And the reason I sometimes miss something happening.

8:32 am went to check on Trooper at the evergreen and he flew before I could get a close up. Ma vocalized about that time when he may have flown. She is still on the outer branch.
