NEST ACTIVITY - THURSDAY DECEMBER 5th

Good Morning.


Harriet has had a peaceful early morning while incubating the eggs. She was up occasionally to roll the eggs and change positions. M15 is perched away from the nest this morning.

An odd light can be seen “dancing” around the pasture this morning and it appears to be a spider swinging in the wind. The faint shadow of a web string is visible.

5:23pm Harriet rises and preens a bit, tends to the eggs and resumes incubating.
