She's getting sleepy...will she stay?

"I'm soooo tired...think I'll sleep right here!"
Looks like we tucked one eagle...the other one might show up a little later! He'll probably fly in early in the morning if not before!

Gabby's snoozing was interrupted by what looked like a little barred owl strike at 8:45 pm. She's okay...she usually stays crouched for a while after...she may still hear it nearby in the tree. She's relaxing now at 9:19 pm..

V3 is still perched at the best, maybe waiting on Gabby, looking so handsome

Have to agree V3 is one handsome male and such a protector. Missing Samson but I'm glad Gabby has V3. I think he will make a good mate for her.

It’s babyhawk’s birthday today. Lots of Birthday Wishes on chat.
