Per Carole Riewe rehabber: "Scarlett was injured Friday night down at the Cove. She hit the large tire on a piece of maintenance equipment - obviously diving in after food.

She was a little better on Saturday and this morning (Sunday) but when I got home from downtown in the afternoon she had expired."

Yes I know what you mean. I have finally got to start looking at the nests pretty close, and guess what. Back to work I go. :sum6:

I don't know what we would do without Terka, always getting those pics we can't at all the nests. :flirty:

It’s snowing in South Bend.. Zeus appeared in the nestbox around 2:00 this afternoon. He seemed to be taking a nap for a few minutes, then jumped up and flew off...
