So glad to see the cam is back & our couple has eggs! :egg20:

Loved the video, SGB! It looks like they both use the same tactic to get the other one away from the eggs. I saw in the captures of Mitchell getting on the eggs that he kinda slipped his head just over the eggs & she did the same thing. It didn't look like either one of them really was ready to leave the eggs. :egg21:

Great catch, loza and really good look at the eggs...

Nice video, Loza! Thank you! There are 4 eggs, right?

Edit: The calendar only lists 3, but I think there are 4 eggs. If not, the egg on the very left is a strange shape & size!

Catwoman..I just can't decide if its 3 or 4. There is one pic where Mitchell is standing over the eggs (he's on the left) and it looks like 4 eggs in that pic.

I know these pics are terrible, but this was hilarious.

Typical standoff...which lasted for about 8 min.

but then, Eve Made her move by stepping on Mitchell's tail.

Everything progressed normally...Mitchell getting up and Eve moving in immediately..

But wait...not so fast....Mitchell decides he's not giving up without a fight..

I swear it looked like they were in a shoving match..

It was just a blur of bodies..but, Mitchell saw his opening and moved in.

...and now you know the rest of the story..

...Mitchell decided he was going nowhere.

Needless to say, I have no clue how many eggs are there!!!

Thanks, SGB!! They could have their own TV show- As the Peregrine Turns..

That's so funny, SGB! :laugh2

I don't remember seeing that with Renetta, but then he was normally on the eggs when they had eggs. Maybe she decided it just wasn't worth trying to get him off the eggs! Poor Eve! :egg11:

Intruder

Here's what I'm seeing...Eve on the eggs and holding her ground. Intruder has entered the igloo several times, but no conflict. Looks like Mitchell is trying to run interference. Intruder is banded, but band is filthy and I can't read. Looks young, but older looking than a 2013 fledge..

Cam is slow, so hard to keep up where it is..I'll post pics when I think its gone..

Barb, can you get on cam controls while I look at my pics...I'm hoping I got a partial band...but, I doubt it..

I tried to call you last night sgb, and this is what I get for not paying attention to the falcons for a week! Holy cow!!! Renetta never let Mitchell get away with that, but you know he would have if he could have. It is so unbelievably sweet seeing them again.
