Wakati tries to get out of her predicament which flushes Harriet off the nest and startles Congo

Harriet ends up returning but she lands on the perch this time... allowing Wakati to take a different approach.
Wakati climbs up the side of the nest.

That is semi-hysterical!
That is not where I want to be.
I wanted to be "out there", I landed down here.
When I flex my wings everyone runs and hides or flies off,
don't they trust me?
OK, I got part way back, but I am still "down here"....
I want to be "up there"......
Yeah, I did it, I did it, I got back!
I am a super hero osprey chick!

I'll be away now till the end of August and Harriet may leave before I return back home... maybe not.

Hello everyone - there's a possibility that today's deliveries by Harriet may have been her last. She was last seen on this date twice in the past years.. once in 2013 and again in 2015.
Possibly her final day - 2 deliveries to the chicks.. Wakati and Congo. Hal is still around.
7:38 am delivery by Harriet
12:51 pm delivery by Harriet
video's from Melissa...

Re: Dunrovin Ranch MT Osprey cam . 2018
Awww....I am glad you are back. Harriet is probably going to be right on target as you said. We'll see (or not) if she is here any longer than today....as you said Hal is here so they have help. (I hope you had a great vacation FFF).
