So other than Mom taking a small break off the nest Mom has not been on the nest since just after 4.00Pm. She kept that piece of fish for the morning but hopefully Dad will bring a fresh one early or do some night flying and give Mom an early break so she can go shopping

8.06Pm All are tucked in

Well just as I posted the last post Dad came in with a fish followed by Mom who took the fish and fed the E's Dad flew off. Whatever went on off cam today was enough to keep Mom from coming to the nest. It is just not like her.
