Looks like a bowl is being dug out?

We have our first egg today at 3:33PM CST!! I missed it because I was watching Captiva. I guess you can't see them all!

I saw in chat of the egg being laid this afternoon. This next is so deep that you cannot see the egg. I did see Mom rolling the egg at about 7:40 pm nest time. I love this camera as you can see so much more now. Dad watching over family tonight.

This is from the FB page. You can just barely see the egg.

There was a switch with Dad laving and Mom taking over.

Mom is defeathering a bird lunch. I'm guessing that she is delaying incubation a bit.

Rolling the egg

Here is a peek at the egg---the bowl is so deep it's normally hard to see

Dad bringing in a big log

Now we begin the long wait until hatch---a second egg should be coming soon!

It's a chilly day in GTexas (I know)-but the sun is out so it must be pretty warm in the nest as Mom has her mouth open

Dad brings in a very nice fish for Mom

There's the egg--you can just barely see it

It's late Sunday afternoon and Mom is on the nest. It looks like it will be a solo egg unless she lays one soon as it is day 4.

..
Mom is on the egg--I missed the rolling of it We just have the one egg this year. Hopefully it will hatch after being left for at least 3 hours the other day.

The wind is really blowing hard and Mom is sitting in the sun on a chilly Texas day incubating the egg.

[MaryF]

..
There is nothing very exciting going on. Mom is on the nest and egg again and it's still windy although it is sunny and warmer

It's a rainy miserable New Year's Eve in Texas.

Earlier in the morning Mom got up to shake the water off her wings and for a PS

Mom is really sprad out over the egg and nest and it's pouring

Dad finally came to give Mom a break

He really doesn't like it much and squawks a lot
