U of Alberta - 2010 / ? & Radisson

[bev.]

I wish I had been taking some of the stuff( )

No egg yet and I am off to work out. would rather be in bed.

[carly]

Morning Bev, you were wasted eh?  Better lay off that stuff, it will make you whirly    (Just kidding!)

4:00 am your time and dark as heck, I think I see a dark shadow in the nest box but can't confirm as of yet.  By the time I get to the office should be light enough to see.

[bev.]

She is still at box. Was there and a few other sites today. will write report in morning, with photos. I am wasted right now.

Radisson has been practising her egg laying postures frequently, and hanging around on the box edge.  Just now the male has arrived and there is bowing going on inside the box.

Great news, bcbird!

Well, Radisson has made a nice little scrape in the nestbox - I think the big event is very close!

just came in for a peek before heading out to Genesse and I thought she was lying an egg but no cigar

7:25am
no Radisson but this means she probably spent the night becasue when I checked in at 11pm last night she was on the inside perch also
I am gone most of day but will be checking  the site at some point today.

6:24 aM est AND 4:24 Edmonton time and Radisson is asleep at the nestbox, she's on the lip of the box this morning.

[bcbird]

She is continuing the in and out, stand and preen routine this evening.
I would agree with you, Carly.  She does look puffy!

[carly]

Radisson in egg laying position in the box again.  Will keep peeking in from time to time, am playing EQII!

And she's back on lip again - in and out..lol

Thanks CArly.  Well I have the R7 now of band. Is that OK TRacy
We had a nice rain last night.




AFter going to Weber ,we just drove into campus and saw RAdisson with back to us on outside perch, and the male was on the south (in the middle) of the top of Newton Place.

That's perfect confirmation Bev ... I'll move the thread into the Manitoba Birds section later today.  Congratulations!!!

7:44 am and she was up, preened a bit..something or someone caught her attention...breakfast perhaps?    And off she went.  Nothing in box as of yet.

[carly]

7:21 am EST and 5:22 Edmonton time and Radisson is in the house.  She's perched on the lip fo the nest box sleeping but cam 2 is too dark to see inside.  She's looking puffy
