Mr is incubating the eggs now. I missed seeing him come in this morning. The area seems to be foggy. |

Mr got up and walked around the nest a bit to give us a great view of the eggs. Then he very carefully got back on the eggs to keep them warm and wait on Mrs to return home. |

Mrs just got home and Mr left. Mrs is almost acting like she's making sure Mr took good care of the eggs.

8:17 Mr. comes in with nest material, manages to poke Mrs. with a stick, and she leaves. 8:37 Mr. arranges material around the nest bowl, and rolls the eggs. Edited by bisbee83, Mar 21 2015, 03:38 PM.

9:12 Mr. calls out and leaves the nest. 9:14 Mrs arrives at the nest for shift change. She moves a stick out of the way, fluffs some nest bowl material, and wiggles in to settle her brood patch over the eggs. |
