OCT 7: Both male and female roosting near nest

Administrator

I stopped by the nest at about 9:30 this morning and found both members of the pair roosting in the high pine at the SW corner of Pines Blvd & SW 208th Avenue.

The male (Pride) is smaller, to the left. Note Jewel's larger bill with deeper gape:

Close-up of Jewel's face:

Pride's body is tapered towards the tail...

...while Jewel is more rotund:

Pride is all ruffled up-- he has just finished preening:

The nest is in good shape. They possibly have already added some sticks:
