MATING
Feb 22, 2023  Mebbe pickins are slim.
She spends the night with MALE - and he allows her in the nest - and lets her kick his kids -
YES - he has accepted her as his mate.  I call her Jez - nicest name I can think of (cough)
This isnt the first time Jez took the mating bow posture.  She's been after him - did she chase Harriet off?


Mating Attempt   :(
Feb 22, 2023  (edit) Lady hawk
M15 was on the attic at dusk looking over his shoulder as R23-3 comes flying in and lands next to him! They exchange vocals and R23-3 bows her head to indicate she is open to mating. M15 jumped on her back briefly.

M15 took a bath in the pond, he gave up his fish today without incident and he still managed to feed his young.
They both are roosting together on the attic tonight and the E's are safe and well fed

JEZ FEEDS E21
Feb 26, 2023  Bird Cam Network
Female steals M15's food delivery. M15 backs off and lets her have it, he watches from the attic. She has a few bites and then starts to feed E21 around half of the entire fish! There are still some aggressive pecks to E21 amongst the feeding. E22 watches and tries to come over for some bites too but R23-3 makes it clear she does not want E22 to get ANY food!

Jez wants to mate
March 5, 2023
  M15 flew to the pond she followed him. They spend a few minutes together before M15 flies back to the nest and R followed.  Jez inches her way closer to M15 with mating vocals, M kept moving away from her.  M15 was not interested in mating.
Lady Hawk is calling Jez = R23-3 but thats too complicated for me

Thank you for the link and summaries, Shep.

(I approve of the RRP way of designating but when you say "Jez" I know exactly who you mean and it is easier for me, too. )

Thank you.
I wish the 2 Decorah eagle cams'd ease up are their rigidity about names.
I had to quit both due to designations.  WHY couldnt they just stick to Mr and Mrs North like the first year?

o well

I have falcons
