the male is either across at the college plaza right now , or adjacent to her on Heart building.
trying to figure out what the white is on her beak,
I think she is tellling the male to get over here

It is wet and cold here. the high today was 7C but to go to 0 C tonight or cooler.
We may be getting snow also. There are winter storm warnings south of us :o :o :o
so she needs to keep it warm but not too warm

How long would she be expected to stay with the egg now laid? She seems to be very settled on it this past hour or so.

I think it really depends on weather and site layout. If it's still chilly at night, she will lay on it and keep it warm until daylight and the temps are warmer. They are very protective of their eggs so they won't go too far away now, save for more 'baby making' to make more eggs but the nestbox will always be in sight by one of them once an egg comes.
