Radisson - 2011 / Ivy & Princess

[bccs]

Yup, make a liar out of me, now wide awake and talking to "someone".......  

[bccs]

Ha, he must have listened, snoozing to beat the band.

[bccs]

Holy mac, that guy has ants in his pants!!    on, off, on off.

Just settle for goodness sakes.

[bcbird]

Once those babies arrive it will be work, work, work, and a parent will be lucky to get any time for themselves.  Personal appearance will be sooo unimportant.  Preen now, while you can, Ivy.

[bccs]

Oh ya, duty calls, eggs 'neath me and my butt is in the air and my nose is in the pebbles.

[bccs]

From what I've seen in the past few hours, Ivy is very concerned with his own personal grooming. Fluff the feathers here, have a scratch there and then remember the eggs. On the eggs, omg, need to preen a wing, shucks, eggs need to be tended. Boys!

He is in the box...just out of sight.

[photosbydennis]

yep 
1234...I better still down again 

sit perhaps rather than STILL 

[photosbydennis]

Ok...that a Boy...it's your turn 

[photosbydennis]

yep 
1234...I better still down again

Is he talking to the chicks, or giving a report to Princess?

Having a bit of a protest ...

[moka]

Maybe he's telling her «Hey, a little help over here»!

Is he talking to the chicks, or giving a report to Princess?

Think Princess is up on the roof, he's talking to her and looking up ... when she starts sticking to the eggs that's usually a pretty good (though not the only) sign that hatching may be imminent.

Is that why Trey wanted to be on the eggs, too?

Trey was more experienced than Princess, could be that was just their division of labour.  In this pair, Ivy's the rookie and Princess the veteran

[moka]

He doesn't seem to know what to do. I don't remember his being so restless before... sit, scrunch, peck, sit again and start over. He probably knows it's the long weekend.
