Good morning, CC. I see you are probably still on the cams. Sorry I logged in and so will log off. Will be watching with you.

5:18 am Brit got up about 25 minutes ago to sit on the back railing. She has been preening.

6 am
In briefly to move the north cam for better look at Brit. Logged out now. Will be watching while we have breakfast.

I'll be away from the computer from roughly 7 am to 1 pm today - will have my phone but won't be able to do anything directly.

6:15 am
I can’t tell if she is rocking a bit or if it’s just the wind ruffling her feathers. She hasn’t moved towards the nest cup - still perched on the edge of the nest.


6:25 am
She just had a ps and then moved onto the nest - maybe?

I've moved North back to the nest - am logging into South to see if I get get the focus a bit clearer - so hard to keep it in focus in this light.

Sandy - happy to let you have the cams if you're here. I did not log into South yet so it's free if you want it.

I am out of both cams.


Probably my imagination, but she looks a bit plump. :love:

Rey just joined her on the nest - he's on the left.

Logging in on South.


She flew off - I couldn't follow her.

Did quick check and didn't see anyone on the night perch near the buildings.


I am out of the cams and away from the computer for the rest of the morning - should be back early afternoon.


Added - Rey flew first; Brit stood for another minute or so before flying off.

Have a good day, everyone!

Thanks, Judy, for zooming. 6:35 am in rollback, Rey didn't stay long for his nest check this morning. Brit was softly vocalizing while he was in the nest poking around. Then Rey flew. Brit followed quickly.
