No sun on them for the whole time and now 5 minutes later, they're alone again, I wonder if there's something going on around there that is making the parents leave the eggs so much..... :-\

The sun's pretty warm today I think, Bally.  At least it is in Winnipeg, so maybe being velcroed to the eggs isn't so important if the heat of the sun is on them for awhile... ???

Brooklyn is at it again this year with biting the back board, not sure what the purpose is............maybe sharpening his beak or bored but he hasn't been on the eggs very long to be bored.  ::)
Here is a little video of him trying to be a carpenter.  

For some reason the link wasn't working.

I find it restful to glance over and watch them while working on my computer. They are such pretty birds. :)

Three is a fine number indeed!  Especially if all three hatched and there were three hearty and healthy chicks! 8)

I'm thinking that Hurricane isn't going to lay a fourth egg.  It's been four days since the third egg and three is a good number!!  ;D
