Question:  In the chat box there is a video of two sub adults in what appears to be a territorial challenge..   Is that a Cottonwood they were perching in?  Could the elder be considering the tree (see the croch just below their perch) for a nest and that is why he is defending it?   It would be neat if we had even another pair to watch (and confusing I might add).

Lisa, great morning pics.  My top-down view missed the fish, so it's either before HD brought it, or he's standing on it.   ;)

STL - If I remember correctly, I think he brought it in after your screen shot.  I kinda thought maybe it was a gift for HM.

A few morning pics from Decorah - Early morning overhead view of N1, HD on Y, HM on Y, and HM was acting like she wanted to get frisky this morning, but HD wasn't interested
