That's great news!  This should be a challenge for Brent to cover them all.  Linda

I think Brent learned his lesson the other day when he wouldn't get off the eggs.  He saw Belinda coming and jumped up, hovered for a few seconds, and was out of there as her feet hit the gravel  Cheesy

Wow, Belinda and Brent! You're right, Nora and Linda - five eggs. I wonder when she laid the fifth egg?

Thanx Alison, I just found this one, I've been outside.  I was having trouble with my one program (the joy of computers sometimes) to lighten this, but I was pretty sure there were five.  Here's one from yesterday too that I thought looked like five and I sure can't figure out when she did it!

Holy cow, just when you're not looking, Belinda goes and lays egg #5.  Once she got down to business, she really meant it.  Watch for SIX Shocked

I have mixed feelings again with five egg clutches.  She did this last year and four survived.  I really hope they don't try for any more.  Veronica

Still five eggs - I don't think she will try for six.

Oh I hope not.  Like Veronica said, she doesn't have a great history as far as hatches.

It was a wet day at King today.  Here are a couple pictures of Brent trying to get resettled on the eggs just before the shift change and another shift change video.  This one really shows their feet walking on the gravel with those long toes, love it  Cheesy

Here's one I got yesterday and didn't get posted and one from this morning.  It was a wet day again yesterday and there was a bit of snow overnight, but it looks like it's melting fast.

I thought this was rather interesting.  I guess I've noticed the difference in the wingtips and how they are held when brooding before, but with the real closeups today it was easier to see.  Belinda was looking so content today.  The first one is what I believe is Belinda and the second one Brent.  And the sun it finally out today!!!
