Very clear webcam viewing this morning, even though I can occasionally see a little bit of water dripping. I think that is still Hurricane in the nestbox with her eggs all tucked in.
... Haven't seen her "listening" yet today ...
How can you tell when she's "listening", TPC? Is that when she tilts her head back and forth? :-\

0943 hrs

Hurricane has her tail feathers tucked into the back corner so she's as under cover as she is going to get.  Not raining at the moment so far as we can see on the cam (we are using the window cam at the moment) but I guess it could be drizzling some that probably wouldn't show online.

Haven't seen her "listening" yet today ...

Quite a dull picture, looks like either very little light, heavy rain, or wet lens, but can see a bird.

Its the condensation building up again with the rain and cool air I believe.  Its getting better ... would be nice if it would stop raining and get a bit warmer!!!!  :D

I believe it's referred to as....

The slide show was great.
You and Rose have some beautiful birdies there.

My view is pretty foggy right now. Can't even see a bird. Must be the rain.

The cam just went blank. Anyone else have a blank screen?

The screen is actually grey and the time is still counting up.

I think its water that got into it, it should clear eventually. I can just make out the camera on the nest box.

Hurricane has been on the eggs most of the day and has been doing some shuffle-shuggle does this mean that a hatch could be in the near future?

Not really, could mean she's just been in the box too long for her comfort.  I haven't seen either of the birds "listening" to the eggs, so I think a bit more baking may be required ...
