A visit from both with a bit of bowing and echupping. 
I think it is the female that hangs around  the most? 
The weather looks much nicer than yesterday.

That is because we have a cold front coming through, it is windy here in London too.

whole lotta pebble-pushin' and re-re-re-decorating going on......  making it all just so
It's windy at this site too..  she nearly got pushed over backwards when she hopped up on the ledge and her belly feathers were all 'askew'...

It looks like our Minnesota Miss is ready to lay an egg.

Now the female is holding down the fort.  She's perched right up close to the camera.  She's got very pretty speckles on her chest.    :)

He is a good looking tiercel; he's been there most of the morning.  The female was there earlier; I believe she spent the night.  So hopefully, eggs are coming soon.  Afterall, it is Easter.   ;D

I checked earlier when Mom wasn't there and didn't see any egg(s); maybe it was the lighting.  She's there now fixing her nest but I still don't see any egg(s).   :(

She's still in the nestbox at 5:42 am EST and looks like she's in a trance! 

Could it be that there is or are eggs?
