Third and fourth eggs

Mama laid a 3rd egg


and then a 4th egg


She is down to serious brooding of the eggs now. She just came back from having her dinner in this video. You can see her pick off some remaining food from her feet before she sits down.



Even Daddy is getting in on the action but not so carefully. I hope all the eggs survive.

Second egg

Mama Hawk laid her 2nd egg. Daddy has been around quite a bit. He is about 2/3 the size of the mama and never sits on the eggs, but he does guard them when she's gone.

Mama Hawk preparing nest

Mama Hawk has been busy for the last few days preparing her nest. We've even seen Daddy Hawk around a few times.









This little finch or sparrow thought it was safe to check out the hawk's nest. I guess she knew she was nothing but a light snack, haha.

View from the camera

Here are just a few of the birds that have landed on top of the tower. Nice view from there I guess.






You just have to pause this one at the end to enjoy the view!
