OMG wouldn't you know this poor dog's name was Rocky, just like my cat Rocky who was chased by a hawk before Christmas in my backyard! And my Rocky is 13 lbs!!! Luckily, the hawk changed his mind and left my Rocky alone! Glad this little fellow survived!
How sad! He was definitely a patriarch, with 34 chicks.
That's an interesting comment on mourning. I'm not sure if it was mourning or just confusion, but I sure remember how Dot.ca stood on the SE corner of the nestbox for over an hour after Unity was killed, looking down Broad Street at the spot where she died. Then Beauty came back that evening and Pigott took up residence at BS, and all hell broke loose! What a time that was! Beauty and Dot.ca are such a good team now that it's hard to imagine they had a such a rocky start three years ago.
They've come a long way baby-Beauty and DC have proven that it's all about adding to the species population and not about feelings for each other.
Well, they certainly are great parents! And who knows...maybe theirs is a slow growing love story
