Checking in and saw smart Mom at the nest. She knows everything. I’ll review now to see when Dad left, but I wanted to post this so we feel better about Mom’s whereabouts.

[Baita]

I reviewed as far as I could (4hrs.) Dad was incubating the whole time. He got up

Flew to the branch

Took off

[Baita]

Vocal follow. (2:34:45) He returned right away but doesn’t go to the egg.

He took off again followed by vocals

He came back

[Baita]

He incubates for a short time then he spots Mom and vocalizes

He’s up

To the branch

[Baita]

Ma Berry arrives. They’re on the nest together.

But just for a couple of seconds as Dad takes off.
Beautiful Ma stayed for a few minutes before taking off

The egg has been alone since. It’s all so bittersweet
