Ron leaves at 6.43.50Am and V2 follows him. She is very persistent. She seems a bit less aggressive this morning with Ron this morning getting him to like her.

V1 and V2 are obviously in a chase/territorial dispute. We just can not see it.

* 8:26:32 Ron is by himself until 9.14.47Am. He really has been testing that nest out a lot. I think he really wanted to be a Daddy this year
* 9.14.47Am V2 arrives back at the nest. Ron moves to the selfie branch 9.15.40Am
* V2 leaves again 9.15.53Am. Ron tracking
* V1 arrives with major vocals 9.17.47Am. She joins Ron on the selfie branch right before she flies off again 9.18.09Am
* Ron finally flies off as well at 9.19.37Am

Update On Rita

Unfortunately after much consideration Rita latter part of her right-wing (Primaries) had to be amputated to ensure the infection did not go any further. She will not be able to fly.

So V2 is still around and has no intention of leaving. Though I didn't have time to report yesterday I did capture some footage of V2 and Ron yesterday.

* Ron moves back to the selfie branch and I guess V2 thought she join him
* Ron moves back to the nest 9.55Pm and flies off 9.56.11Pm
* V2 right after him 9.56.19Pm
