NICE I was there just after that I think that is rey great shots always thanks for posting !skleynhans wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2024 1:50 pmOut for a walk around noon, I caught Rey (at least I think it is Rey) leaving the nest (12:10), perching in a tree across the way (12:14) and then returning to the nest (12:15). Unfortunately, I was quite a distance away and the skies were pretty gloomy so it doesn't make for very detailed shots.Rey Liftoff from nest long B.jpgRey watching nest from afar.jpgRey returns to the nest .jpg

7:20pm.........IN on both cams.
From the rollback........all was calm until Rey brought another stick to the nest at 7:10pm. It was a comedy of errors as he tried to put it into the right place while Brit was determined to keep that egg protected.

7:31pm.........From the rollback.............Hilarious, but heartwarming....... .....Rey laid down in the nest by Brit. He looked to be trying to push her off the egg so he could take over. Brit did not budge.
I don't think I've ever seen a male and female adult lying together in a nest like this before.

7:36pm......Since that time not much has happened...Brit remains on the egg.
Brit was up to loosen the bedding and is now lying down pulling grasses all around her.

7:46pm....I do not see Rey. But Brit has made some soft vocals............think he's up top again on guard. Don't want another episode like last night's intruder. He will be watching.
Brit is going to sleep.
