It's hard getting numbers there, but maybe this year, :)

Nice to see them at home! One brought a small bird in and then left with it when it's partner wanted it.

I look for a clue to egg 1 date when #2 arrives. ;D

As it was getting light I could see egg #2.....

It's sure hard getting views of these eggs! They move them a lot, but keep them very hidden. :D
1622 today:

May 19
I suspect the other 2 eggs will hatch overnite or tomorrow

Dad popped in shortly after to check on things and then left.............It's only 41 degrees and windy up there, have yet to get a glimpse of the new little one (it's 1647 now).

Things are very well-hidden today. When she turned around at 2052 there are at least two little ones! (Or two plus a newer one????)

At 1543 mom left to go get a meal when dad came in and the one little one got dragged over by the front of the nest box.
(https://uniim1.shutterfly.com/render/00-mqUU_s2Ncmc9QbtMyD0s6vI_3wc4UmetzoWj2-sEqyAau5U92g19LCiSOtdErJRTUnDnu4gHHWpfyYq5WwzmNg?cn=THISLIFE&res=medium&ts=1747777031)
Dad was concerned, but didn't seem sure what to do and did get over the other ones to keep them warm. The little egg tooth on the one trying to hatch kept coming in view.

Mom got back and did a feeding, most of which the one was still out there and looked like it was trying to work its way back to the rest. It did make it back over.

Interesting. At 1705 mom came in and reached over by dad and got him to leave, then pulled the egg over by her.

After dad left she gathered the egg and littles close to her.
