Elaine L:
Ha, Ha! Jadoo, you are so right, isn't that the way it always is in life? And, it is certainly true that since our experienced male died and our experienced female got killed by a guy with a broom a couple of years ago, this site has gone nowhere.
In the present situation, I wish they would have taken the eggs out, replaced them with dummy eggs, and incubated them. Then, we may have had fledgings. But I don't know how these people operate down there in Ohio, I guess they have different ideas.
jadoo:
...durand occasionally comes back, looks at her eggs, looks over her shoulder, and heads off again - she's REAAALLY making a play for somebody out there... :P...obvious she's a young bird herself - hasn't she learned that the smell of desperation is SURE to put off potential mates ::) ?
Pam:
This site has really had a rough few years.....
Moonstar:
I agree with you Jadoo. Things do not look good here. :'(
jadoo:
...no go on the pip...Durand, although apparently on the eggs overnight, has not been on them for most of the morning; I don't think this clutch of eggs is viable any more. There is a new male coming around now, and the BCAW crowd watching this nest seem thrilled - me, not so much - it is another juvenile male...I don't know where any of the adult male "floaters" are around this area if this nest is in such a prime spot, but it seems like only very young males are showing up, and i really think that Durand and this nest site could use an older, even slightly more experienced male...sigh...
