Friday 11-1, 4-6:40 at the nest

[Jill W]

At 12:00, an adult flew in with prey.  All three enjoyed it and then settled down for a bit.  I know you will have to stretch your imagination, but if you look closely, both chicks and the adults are looking the same way.  Sorry, but I'm still a photo dummy but I read more of the manual this afternoon.



At 12:30, the adult flew to the pine tree to the east and did not do a good job of rubbing its beak.  I didn't know for sure if I was just seeing things, but I thought I saw white feathers attached to the beak of the adult flapping in the breeze.  I saw, when I got home, that there were feathers on its beak.







I'm thinking that I have misled people when they stop by and ask when the best time is to take pictures  of the adults and to be able to the chicks standing up.  I have always said that it is random and can happen anytime of the day.  I think at this time, the morning is when things really happen.

Important edit to post:

I posted that the chicks and adults were looking the same way.  I don't know how I managed to type an "s" in there.  There was only one adult.
