maggieblue:
Scout is doing a whole lot of wiggling around over the eggs. I hope that it means that an egg is about to hatch. :D
bccs:
Where are you????? I need you.
Looks like a puppy looking for mumma. Great picture!!!!!
bev.:
I think Orville was giving them some air as Scout was having trouble keeping them covered and cool. They expect a hatch any day.It was almost as if Scout could hear some peeping and was looking for Scout to come back
Too bad their sound is not working right now. It is so great to hear the peeping in the shells.
Scout
The Peregrine Chick:
If he's standing, particularly if he's dropped his wing(s), he could very well be funnelling cooler air over the eggs (or his belly) - they, particularly the males since they are smaller, do that alot when the chicks are hatched ...
Elaine L:
Yes, I see now there was no reason to be concerned; Scout finally left, and Orville has now come in; he is looking at the fruits of their labor like he cannot believe the size of them; I am sure he is thinking, how am I supposed to cover these honking big eggs? I believe that he feels that standing over them is the best option at this point, and that is what he is doing, and he looks like he is sleeping on his feet.
