Is this the first night that DH2 has been left alone on N1?  HM was on the Y at end of daylight, not sure location of HD. Another milestone.

DH2 appears very aware of sounds beyond the nest, like geese, and people, and dog barking this morning.
And tail feathers are sprouting, as are the wing feathers!

                                              After The Fledge   2023

Sorry for my late information feathered friends.  Forgiven?

Our get-together this year will be July 20 thru July 23.  Extra days pre or post could be added as needed.  Starts on Thursday evening, departures for most would be on Sunday.
My unfortunate news for some might be that the manager will not be offering us a hold on any rooms at the Country Inn & Suites.  Anyone so inclined to stay there will have to call for your own arrangements  800-830-5222.   Maybe register a  complaint with manager Justin?

If this isn't HM, then the caption should read "Poptent in downpour."  ;D

Morning pics from Decorah - DH2 is getting so big!  DH2 is standing, wingercizing, and loves breakfish time!

Lisa G, good shot of wingercizing. Our baby is ticking off developmental milestones every day. It's lucky that they is only one owlet. It would be very crowded and possibly dangerous, if both eaglets had survived. Hope the Hatcherys rebuild bigger next year. So far they are doing very well on the learning curve.
