My pleasure Lola! Thanks for your comment.

Umm..WOW..three eggs this morning for Valentine and Antonio.   

3 more stars-

They're gonna be busy! 

I can't even imagine you as a lurker, MAK! Thanks Donna and Janet.

I totally was Barb! 

Wowee wow!

MAKfalcon (MAK): Just arrived DT in time to catch DC swooping at NB so I assume B is in there. He has landed under the NE wing of TSB. Sheesh

QUESTION!! Could DC be trying to scare away Beauty from her NB so Pigott can
use it instead of Beauty? Since DC has already mated with Pigott? So, the
swooping might not be a mating ritual, but perhaps trying to get her out of the
NB?

It's my opinion that's exactly what Dot.Ca is doing. He did this last year too but he seems to be more intent on it this time around. 

Congrats!

Only 12,000 to go to catch Donna.

 

I am providing the link for 1 of my videos that shows a closer look at the swooping that's going on at the nest box while I wait for the rest to upload and write my watch report. It is my opinion that Dot.Ca is NOT playing,courting or display flying. As you can see in the photo I have also provided, his talons are down when he swoops just inches above Beautys' head. I do hope that just like last year he gets the message that she is not giving up her nest box for him and Pigott and he settles down to begin the business of making babies.

Good question Bobbie!  Did you know that I used to be a lurker? Donna and Janet brought me out of it and I have to say that it was a good thing!! Thank you ladies!
