8:10pm.......Brit is snuggling down into the warmth of the nest. There is a slight breeze.
It should be a quiet time here now. No intruder tonight, thank goodness.
OFF cams.

I don't think I've ever seen a male and female adult lying together in a nest like this before.

10:19pm..........Checked the rollback........Brit has been sleeping much of the time since the last post. She did stand up around 9:01pm. She is still standing at this time..........likely giving the egg some air to slow down hatching.
Currently..........It has gotten quite windy and we see Brit's feathers blowing around.

Jean, what a sweet moment. Rey did the same during the middle day. Seems to be attempting to find a way to get his egg time.Jean wrote: ↑Thu Mar 28, 2024 7:32 pm7:31pm.........From the rollback.............Hilarious, but heartwarming....... .....Rey laid down in the nest by Brit.

3:12 am Brit is tucked in and incubating her egg. She spent a quiet night, getting up to roll her egg or stand over her egg and then lying in the nest bowl.

6:44 am checking in on Brit. She is lying down in the nest bowl. I heard her a bit ago softly calling out. She did get up a few times to check on her egg.

6:58 am a nice look at the egg. Oh boy, I can see where the egg has gotten a bit dirty and I foresee we will be looking at those dark spots hoping for future pip. Smiles.

7:06 am Brit flies back to the nest. She begins by digging in the nest bowl, moving the egg back toward her.

7:09 am Brit is now incubating her egg. Good she got a good stretch before she came back for egg duty.
7:13 am logging off both cams. Leaving the south cam zoomed in a bit to watch the action. Any zoomer who wants to change, please do so.“Eagles: When they walk, they stumble.
