I wish they would get rid of that egg.  I can't imagine if it broke.

just so you know, we had 2 severe storms during the evening( pounding rain , high winds , thunder ,lightening.
this could affect cam 2 as soon as the sun warms up a bit(humidity)
A few pictures of early morning feed and the big crop

Mom took the prey out today so I do not know why she left some of the other in(not her pattern)
could be becasue of the severe weather we have had , she was making sure she had enough to feed them both if need be. :-\ :-\

The lens is cleared up his morning and mom is cuddling with baby - she is the cutest chick ever!  I noticed she left the baby yesterday for quite a while as well but I'm the overprotective mom.  When our mom here used to leave her babies for too long I used to yell at the web cam while in the office at work no less..lol!

Thanks Liz. I had never seen a chick left this long at this age before.  she was left  1 hour and 10 minutes that I saw.  I did phone my biologist friend to make sure things were O.K. O f course while we were on the phone she came in>. :) :)
He said that becasue it was 11 degrees it would be O.K. for awhile longer . I t still could not regulate its body temperature but it was still warm enough.  but he said definitely not for more than 2 hours. he had noticed as I had that this female has been leaving the chick tonger and longer but this did have me worried.
