It's so great to turn one's computer on in the morning, check out Rochester and get a Great Big Grin on one's face!!  This is wonderful news!!  What fine red eggs!!  YES!!

Anne in Toronto

Oh my gosh -- wrote that, looked up and a red-tailed hawk landed on the corner of my balcony -- about 8 feet away from "my" two 11 day old pigeon squabs!!  Yikes!!  Didn't know I could move that fast, this early in the morning!!  Squiggles, the father, and I came roaring in on the poor thing at the same time!  Squigs is such a brave father!!  The r-t didn't stand a chance!!!  The squabs are tucked out of sight, but still...  No photo this time -- just a r-t driving away outburst!  Coffee -- I need coffee!!

A fortunate Ustream hiccup on stream 1 caused a new recording to start after midnight. So we have a video that may show the egg being laid. I haven't had a chance to watch it yet.

Cool!  Is it posted on the actual ustream page?  If so, I'll snip out the relevant section & post it later...

That would be great to see!  We'll keeping our tail feathers crossed!!  Thanks for the extra effort, Shaky!

Red-tails aren't so easily intimidated!   An old lady and a pigeon don't make up really worthy opponents!  *grin*  I just hope he has more interesting things to eat!  I'll be optimistic!!

Oh!    It came earlier!
I saw them both clearly on cam at 1:30, when she settled down over them, but there wasn't anything I could see in earlier archive stills.

The highlight clip is ready!

After an 8 day delay, Beauty lays her second egg at 01:06:29 (http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/13870501/highlight/163739#utm_campaign=unknown&utm_source=163739&utm_medium=social)

dale-you'll see right after she lays the egg she picks her tail up high.  She did that with the first egg too.  What is apparent on the still cams is when she relaxes and crouches down over the egg.  I think when we watched Mariah, she would crouch lower almost immediately.
