This photo brings back memories of one of our PF's wing deep in snow incubating her eggs. Was that Joli, Dennis?  ;D

We've had a couple - Joli's nest we had to dig out because Hart was totally buried under the snow with just a little airhole to breath through.
Years before that, Princess and Trey had a nest on the east side of the Radisson that during an icestorm had them and the ledge totally encased in ice.

Tough little birds these.

I forgot about that ice storm. I hate, hate that East side ledge. Brings back  :'( :'( memories.

Well…Ella and Pip thought they had a nestbox with a Beach. Going to have to do some digging before he can work on the scrape again…just sayin !

It is always great news when your hear an injured animal/bird has been rehabbed and then released back into the wild. Arcturus is beautiful. And again, Dennis has captured the moment in this amazing photo.  :) :-*

;D Welcome home Pip! So Hart must begin anew at one of the other sites. Hopefully a "new" lady arrives on the scene soon. It would be great to have resident pairs at all 4 sites again. And 2 live cams. Anticipation builds.  :)

Funny you should ask that ...  ;D
Have some more info on that coming shortly!

Interesting!
