Samson flies off, perhaps to Evening Tree, and Gabrielle is snoozing at Lookout Point (for now). I'm betting they will get together in a while.

SATURDAY TUCK-IN: Samson and Gabrielle both arrived at the nest tonight before 7:15pm. They spent most of the time together on LOP. Gabrielle was whining a lot. They were darling. Samson later flew and is likely across the street at the ET. If vocals are heard, it's easy to tell. At this time Gabrielle is still perched on LOP and fully tucked. SED y'all


Goodnight Samson and Gabrielle Marainne ... bonjour Philjo .. Stay Safe everyone

00h41 Gabby is preening, chasing the bugs with her head and may be trying to sleep good

00h48 And finally tucked in sleeping

[Philjo56France]

jd_AEF 02:51 2:29 am Looked like Samson was bothered by an owl or bat or some small flying bird. He arrived briefly on Sunset branch with the small bird flapping around, and then flew off, likely to LY area. Gabrielle woke up but did not vocalize so perhaps it was a silent owl...our pesky barred owl ??
jd_AEF 03:29 Here's a quick video of Samson's encounter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIIi3W8fm3A


03h33 Gabrielle is still sleeping well but not the bugs

[Philjo56France]

jd_AEF 04:16 4:15 am Gabrielle still sleeping peacefully...all is quiet.

jd_AEF 05:47 5:45 am Gabrielle is awake and I'm sure we will be hearing from her very soon! :GabbyEmoji:

jd_AEF 06:17 6:15 am She is catching some last winks before sun-up!
Today is predicted to be mostly cloudy with increasing chance of thunderstorms in the afternoon and evening hours. Temps upper 70's to low 80s and winds light less than 10 mph.

jd_AEF 06:45 Samson arrives with a flourish at 6:44 am! Sweet vocals between them as they say Good Morning!


06h54 Now we can hear Gabby !

Sam flies off and brings a mossy clump including a small stick at 7:17 am
5
Sam does some arranging of sticks and then flies off again 7:36 , returning right away with another mossy stick
6
He's off again 7:40 am...what will he find?
5
It's another very small stick. I wonder if the landscapers cleaned up a lot of big sticks after the storms.
