Something going on here. Scout was napping on the eggs and Orville preening on the ledge in front of the ledgecam. Orville started kaking and took off after something. Scout came out of the nestbox to see what was going on and took off too, leaving the eggs :o
O.K. They are back, both cleaning their beaks. And now Orville is taking a shift on the eggs. Whew!

That's why I made the comment about how Orville reminded me of Trey :D
Trey would do such a great job housekeeping while he was incubating, he would come off the eggs several times ::) I noticed Orville did the exact same thing..... 8)

:) Both males and females pick up pieces of gravel while incubating - I watched Mariah at Rochester do this for years.

They are nest-making :D
They will continue to do this during incubation and brooding after the chicks hatch. Trey has been known to get so involved in "housekeeping" that he wanders off the eggs/chicks he's suppose to be incubating/brooding.
