10:16 am mom is on duty, she is calling
10:17 am Shadow brings a stick to the nest
10:18 am mom is leaving, I can see the eggs.
Shadow is on duty now, he looks so good, I have been missing him.
10:29 am mom lands on the nest tree, Shadow talks to her
10:31 am mom jumps on the nest, Shadow is talking to her, mom is waiting, it is pretty windy
10:33 am mom keeps waiting, Shadow keeps calling
10:34 am Shadow is leaving, mom is getting on the eggs. Looks like mom does not take long breaks anymore.
Hopefully I will be able to check in the evening again.
