I have a feeling Mama is going to show her fledglings where to cool off on warm day like today.  Getting ahead of myself...but I can't wait for the babies!

What an excellent video Carol. She reminds me of many kids just before they have to come out of the water. Just 1 more dip...1 more. Amazing..thanks so much. How far was that from the nest box? If it's close, she can sneak away when Archer babysits for a quiet dip.  :clap:

It's very close Donna. 1 city block from Times square building. Bridge would be only thing blocking a view of her from the nestbox. :wave:
