I clearly see 2 pips in 2 separate eggs during this changeover.

Mom's doing the "jiggy" and arranging pebbles quite a bit.  Perhaps a little anxious?  :)

 I think the eggs are very close to hatching.  Mom got up for a few moments and I thought I saw white on 2 of the eggs.  ;D

Those eyes and ears are certainly perked up!  I wonder what's going on?

"Shuggling" -- what a great word.  It looks exactly the way it sounds!

hm, that was funny.  one of those "phwoosh" sounds (like a hydraulic or something) happened, and clearly woke mom up.  She jerked her head around and is now staring intently at something above the nestbox.

Well can sure hear the chick even though Dad tries to cover the eggs up.
