It's Durand. She went into the box with a lot of bowing and e-chupping, but nothing came of it and she went back out onto the ledge. Breakfast appears to be late today.

Have to go to work...have a great day all!

Wow Arjen...maybe it's my imagination, but Aries looks beat-up at the start of this video. His head feathers are a mess. A battle? :nervous:

It's too early for molting. I went back into earlier pics, including yesterday and those white marks on his head were not there....they look like scratch marks unless he's wet from the rain. C&C has mentioned that males battle in the air and they suspect Rocky sustained his head injuries from a raking of Trailblazer's talons. This is such a crazy time of the year when these birds are jockeying for territories and mates. Yikes! I can't help but think that maybe Spark is still around. If there's fighting going on, I just hope no one gets hurt.

Durand was agitated about something..

I'm sure they are working on the cam situation. Hope its an easy fix..

Your catch of the canoodle was the first one I have seen of Durand and Aries! Thank you SGB.

I was noticing the ledge and I don't believe I've ever seen it so messy. Durand an Aries need to get busy today with housekeeping. LOL

It's snowing here and very cold! :snowball:
