Maltese is currently on the porch. Male down in nest with her earlier, but only saw his head.

They came in before sunrise today and have been in and out all day long, sometimes together and sometimes separate. Maltese is Maltese and I think Peace is Peace as I was able to see black/red band and see the P and the 2 of his known band of black/red P/23. He just left.

...and March 12, Maltese is still resting on the porch. Maybe waiting for Amazon to deliver the new curtains for the nursery?...... :teehee:

Still no cam, T! I was here yesterday afternoon after I went to AES/IPL I believe and it was working.

Lots of visits and hanging out in the nest today.

Maltese is doing some major pebble picking at the moment...

Maltese is basking in the bright but chilly sunshine- a welcome change after the monsoon Indiana and Ohio experienced yesterday...
