Only two birds remained in the nest box at 7 AM. Sacagawea was on the perch to the left and Linn remained in the box. That Ananta and Grace were in the playpen was made obvious by the occasional appearance of their wings as they walked around and flapped to strengthen their muscles. Linn came to the front right of the box and then returned to the back several times. Frequently Mariah and Kaver flew in to check on things, bring food, etc. Though one meal was retained by Mariah who took it to a BeeBee stack and ate it. Around 8:30 AM Kaver perched on one of the lilies and Mariah on the playpen railing to the southeast. The parents were still in these positions when our shift ended at 9 AM.
