Mom is very restless and about in the same position she was in when egg number two arrived, so maybe number four is on the way  ;D

still three lovely eggs, and sound is gone again.  Which is probably a good thing - I had this cam on all day in my office and also had meetings in here all day.  If the sound had come on it would have been a bit startling!  :o

I'm glad to see her again tonight hunkered down under the light, and not staring at it.  And I gotta again say -- what beautiful colouring on this bird!   :)

Might be another egg coming soon, she's doing the tai chi poses again like before last egg came.

Still just the two eggs. Someone (Dad?) is perched just to the far left of the picture, watching the world go by and getting feathers ruffled in the wind.

When I first looked in on the nest box this morning he/she was just staring into the light.  I thought the camera was frozen but I could see the traffice moving.  He/she were so still.  Finally there was movement and then he/she took off.  Still only two eggs.  No one is in there right now.  There is no sound this morning.

I'm so glad she's hunkered down instead of up staring at the light.
