After checking the other poles, the eagle is still on the pole next the tower.

Odd thing just happened -
Ma came to the nest and was digging around...

After a few seconds she jumped forward as if she'd been bitten or something...

3:07pm.............Ma was contracting as early as 2:52pm............so nice to see Pa there with her. But I think she laid that egg at about 2:57pm. If no one objects we can keep 2:57pm as the official time.........THOUGHTS?

Ma having contractions.............rolling her body back and forth.

Ma rose to look at her egg.
