Good morning.. again the cams are off air . I 'll be at the nest shortly.

Look what we have here !!! A brood patch!

WOOHOOO !!!!!!
I have been looking and looking for this. This is so awesome ! I am just sooooo eggcited !
Happy Dance, Happy Dance!!!!!!!

4:24 am Sitting at my computer looking at F/B ,cams on and I hear Harriet and Ozzie . They are close by but can't see them. For me hearing Ozzie that well, means they are close by.  Hmmm gives me an idea of where to look for them later when I get to the nest. 5:00 am the cam's went off oh well I'll be there soon.....  Yes they do fly when it's dark. It maybe be from 1 tree to the other but they do fly. Why wouldn't they ? I think if they had to.... they could go further. Just my opinion.
 Oh and before I forget , the answers to the photo's ( since everyone had given up..lol ) #1  Harriet but why? #2 Ozzie -besides the beak what else? Remember I said there were 2 ID"s that both of them have or don't depends on the light and the angle in which you see the second one.  I didn't know both of them  had it until I got the 400 mm lens and was sooo surprised to see it. The tail ID both have it from my photo's . So there you go. Remember... I am giving my observations of what I see. I am not an expert nor do I claim to be. I see what I see in my photo's and from being there day in a day out. I do try... to the best of my ability to write from memory what I see and give an honest account of it.

Ok... so I will be back later with today's activities.

Well they were in the old cam tree when I got there. Harriet on one side ,Ozzie on the other. Harriet does some vocalizing and I look around across the pasture from the NW some thing is flying and goes right past me. It looked like and Owl but I'm not sure. When Dave got to the nest a little later, I asked him what kind of Owl did he get a pic of the other evening in the west pasture tree, he said it was a GHO and told me from underneath they look like a Hawk but their body's are rounder-fuller than a Hawk. So that's what it was. My first Owl and I didn't get a photo of it. Harriet and Ozzie didn't seem to bothered by it but was vocalizing. The Owl headed across the road.
Ozzie joins Harriet on the same branch. They are vocalizing and Harriet gives Ozzie the side kick and mating is on...lol   This was around 7:13 or so . They sit there for a bit then Harriet heads for the nest. Harriet checking things out and Ozzie heads over to the right pond tree . He fly's up breaks off a branch - or it falls off from Ozzie's weight. This thing was HUGE! Ozzie didn't or couldn't keep a hold of it , down to the ground it went and Ozzie flew back to the nest tree  up to the attic empty talon. I left to go to Publix and Ozzie left to go to the stick tree's across the road. I made it back be for Ozzie did...lol Ozzie soon finds the right stick and back he comes.  Harriet goes to the attic branch , then Ozzie leaves and goes to the river. Harriet stays around for awhile then she leaves headed towards Bob's house. I stayed for a bit then left. I have a few things to do so made it a short day.

This is a link to Dave's photo of the Owl

So for the photo's I posted yesterday. I wanted to know who it was and what ID was used for coming to the conclusion for everyone's answer. I'm just trying to show how some ID's are not the best because both of them have 2 of the same makers that are being used for one of them..... Dam even more confusing isn't it!?  Here are the ID"s that are posted on the cam page......  

Harriet (Female)

Ozzie (Male)

• Much larger than Ozzie • Inverted V in front neck ruffles • Dark circles around eyes • Thick/larger beak, larger gape • Black speckles high on tail • Dark heart shape on head, back right • Has a Longer middle talon than O Some of course are the ones we know the best. There are 2 that both of them have. I did look for their photo of the one for black speckles high on tail but did not find one. So I'm going by what I see in my photo's same for the dark circles around the eyes.

• Slimmer head • Smaller than Harriet • Interspersed sprinkles of white on right back shoulder • Inverted V above beak, brow line

Nice quiet morning at 5:30 am.Then  Kathy made it to the nest around 7-7:30 with her Mom. Donna M , Jim and his wife, David Mitz, Jay, DeAnna , Jeff  all eventually showed up.
   Ozzie, as it seems to be, was the first one in the nest. He came from the front tree. Harriet took her time showing up in the nest.  Ozzie was the first one to leave heading east. Harriet was on the attic branch then flew to one of the dead tree's close to us. She was just looking around ,scratched her head then left out headed east also. Harriet wasn't gone but a min and back she came with a squirrel for breakfast.

Harriet leaving to get her breakfast

Harriet and her breakfast

Ozzie snuck  in on us and went to the right pond tree. He must have gotten some to eat also , he was feaking his beak . Ozzie done with his clean up , fly's down to gather up some grass for the nest and heads over to the nest while Harriet is still eating her squirrel. Ozzie deliver's the grass then hops over to the porch branch and lets Harriet eat. Then all of a sudden   both Ozzie and Harriet are sounding the alarm and are in intruder mode. Here comes a Hawk to our left flying what looked to be straight at the nest.  The Hawk , realizes it's mistake and you can all most hear it saying...."Abort  mission ,Abort! Abort !  " and take a sharp turn to it's left and head off over the road. I swear I saw the Hawk wipe it's forehead with it's wing as if to say "Pheww that was close.. dam near got my ass whipped!"

See how they are both puffed up

Ozzie & Harriet vocalizing

With the Hawk gone ,Harriet finishes her squirrel and Ozzie joins her in the nest. Of course she didn't leave any thing for Ozzie...LOL  Harriet goes to the porch branch and feakes her beak. Ozzie soon joins her, then we have mating.   Ahh  Love Birds!  Ok now from the angle I was standing at..it looked like Harriet was still feaking her beak while they were mating .  could be wrong but from some of the conversation the others were having , they were saying the same thing..lol 

 Love birds siting side by side.

Enough quality time for Ozzie he fly's down to pond area and gathers some more grass for the nest bowl.  Ozzie comes back lands on the attic branch then drops down into the nest. Harriet joins him.

Harriet finds some of the grass on the edge of the nest and puts it were she thinks it should go while Ozzie is busy with bit of grass. But of course Ozzie still has the finale say on the placement so Harriet then goes to the porch branch, then back into the nest for a few mins then up to the attic branch.   They both stay for awhile not doing much more so I took the opportunity to go ahead and leave. As I gather up my things to leave I take one last look at them . Both just relaxing and seemed very content.

What a Beautiful sight to see. I sigh and get in my truck and head home. Another awesome day with Ozzie & Harriet .   

                                 Monday, 10/27/14
I haven't written in a few days. I was going to do just one blog for this last week before my surgery but sitting here watching Ozzie and Harriet on the cam this morning, before going to get all my test's done,  made me realize how much I am going to miss seeing them , hearing Harriet calling in the morning, stick placement discussions, the mating,  all of it while  I'm sitting at the nest. I'm in tears right now. My heart is aching  like I'll never see this again even tho I know I can see it on the cam it's just not the same for me.......

The past few days have been so much fun with Ozzie and Harriet and the great group of people that come to the nest also. Rail getting, mating, feeding Harriet (which is to Ozzie's advantage)  and them just sitting there relaxing. Watching Harriet closely for any signs of a brood patch, how she seems to be looking much "fuller" theses days. Great conversations while waiting for them to return.  Is what I do for everyone ? No... it does get real boring while waiting some times. I've almost fallen asleep a few times when I was out there by myself.....LOL But it's well worth it when they come back.
I have seen the different behaviors of Ozzie and Harriet . Their markings to ID who's who's . These photo's show from I am reading on the cam page of a couple of ID"s that I don't agree with for one of them.
                                                            Who is this????

                                                           Who is this one ?????

If you go by the ID's that are on the cam page , tell me who's who or are they the same? ....... 

10/28/`14
The morning was very foggy. Ozzie and Harriet were not in their normal tree's nor did Harriet vocalize like she usually does. So I wanted to see which direction they were going to come in from. Surprise! They came in from Bob's direction. First Harriet around 7:19 am then Ozzie 2 mins later.  Harriet went to the old cam 2 tree, then Ozzie went straight to the nest tree  and Harriet followed.
Some stick moving then Ozzie headed over to the stick depot across the road. Wow Ozzie brought in another HUGE branch, a small tree..lol

Placement of this one is going to be tricky. Weather Ozzie likes it or not , Harriet was going to have to help him with this one. It was still a bit foggy out and of course my lens fogged up too...... Geeeshh
Harriet leaves the nest and heads for the west pasture treeline. Ozzie soon follows and there is mating in the west treeline. I couldn't see them but I sure could hear them .lol   It takes only a few mins and Ozzie is headed back to the nest with another branch. Harriet stayed in the west pasture tree to get her self presentably just in case the cam's were back on. Bless Harriet , she wants to help Ozzie with the sticks but he still wants to do it him self. Harriet lets Ozzie do his thing and goes to the porch branch were it's safe. I guess Harriet was bored with sitting there , she took off towards Bob's place as Ozzie was across the road again for another stick. Ozzie got a few more sticks then went to the porch branch  to relax while Harriet was out shopping. About an hour or 2 Harriet comes back from the north with 2 talons full of grass. Boy it sure took a long time to pick out the right grass for the nest. ...lol
Oh I almost for got to tell you about the silly Mocking Bird that was using some ones windshield as a slide... OMG too  funny . It saw it's reflection in the window and kept going after it up and down the windshield. It would make it to the top and end up sliding back down .   This went on for about 20 mins.

We had to have some thing to watch , Ozzie was just chillin and Harriet hadn't made it back yet...lol
So any  way Harriet makes it back with some grass and you all know Ozzie has to get in the nest with her and help - push her out of the way. There is some more stick moving and a few beak pecking   Ozzie is once again tackling that big awkward stick he brought in earlier. Harriet steps up on the front porch branch to get out of Ozzie's way. LOL  it  looked like Ozzie nipped her tail feathers but he was moving the stick.  She turned around looked at Ozzie then went up to the attic branch.   Ozzie is done for the day heads off towards the back of the Church and keeps going east. Harriet watches him and about 5-10 mins later Harriet heads off in the same direction. Time for me to head home and get a few things done. A good  day with them both.

Ozzie battling with the Big stick

10/23/14 A fish for Harriet

Ok so this morning I'm feeling better than yesterday morning. Those dang pain pills are great but I sure didn't get up in time yesterday and felt bad so was a bit late getting to the nest yesterday. When I say late, for me if I'm not  at the nest by 5:30-6:00 am mine late ...lol
So today Ozzie was in the pond tree and Harriet was in their favorite tree (old cam 2 tree) Hmm they must have had a little spat before bed time ..lol Harriet was steady calling to Ozzie and he was just ignoring he even had his back to her.  I guess he just decided to do what she was asking because Ozzie went to the nest and did his usual checking things out. Ozzie left the nest headed towards the river and Harriet right behind him. Well ok ,it's going to be an early day. I always stay yaround just in case they come back.
I was talking to Mike and I thought  I kept hearing Harriet . Sure enough here comes Harriet just a squeeeing like one of the kids and Ozzie bring in a fish from the river. Harriet in front and Ozzie behind her...lol  Harriet makes it to the nest and turns just in time as Ozzie is making his landing. I'm just laughing. If I didn't know any better I would have thought one of the kids were home from all that squeeeing Harriet was doing.

Ozzie left , Harriet right

Harriet gets her fish from Ozzie , then Ozzie heads off to the pond. He lands just before the edge of the pond and it looks like he is looking for some thing..... Ozzie leaves from there and goes to the pond tree. Ozzie breaks off a pretty thick branch from the tree. I didn't think there was any branches left to get off that one but he found one. Back to the nest he goes and places his branch while Harriet is still eating her fish. Ozzie figured it out, it's better to feed Harriet while he is doing the rails...lol  It keeps her busy. Ozzie heads up to the attic branch and does a little bit of preening before heading off again to get another rail while Harriet is still busy. Ozzie goes across the road and fines a huge branch. As he is coming back, Ozzie has the branch in his talons in such a way it looks like he is surfing ....LOL

Ozzie leaving

Cowwabunga Dude!!!

Ozzie gets his branch placed then goes up to the attic branch. Harriet finished off her fish then goes to the porch branch. Harriet has one HUGE crop! It's so big it is pushing the feathers a part , you can see the under-down showing ...LOL She's a happy camper .

Harriet and her HUGE crop.

Harriet hops into the nest to see what Ozzie has done. Well Ozzie drops down from the attic branch to keep an eye on Harriet . He doesn't want Harriet touching any of his work.

Harriet gives up and goes back on to the porch. It really is best to just Ozzie do his thing and get out of his way. Ozzie soon joins Harriet on the porch. Oh we thought there might be mating again but nope ... no Eagle porn to show you today.. LOL

Here I come Harriet make room.

 They sit together.... Ohhh soo cute, then Ozzie leaves for the west pasture tree line to get another branch.

Places's his branch then again back to the porch with Harriet. They must be have a conversation that we can't hear because off Ozzie goes again this time towards the pond for some grass. Harriet must have told Ozzie "the nest needs some more fluff for me to sit on".....

Must get more fluff for my Honey  Harriet .

  Harriet gets to check out the grass delivery. Satisfied with the placement , Ozzie goes up to the attic branch and Harriet stay's in the nest still checking Ozzie's beaky work ( handy work) ...LOL
So all seems good ,work done Ozzie leaves headed to the north and Harriet stay's.  This is when I take my leave and head home. When I got home ,I checked to see if Harriet was still in the nest tree. She was but it wasn't long before she left.  My days are numbered . Soon I will have to watch Ozzie and Harriet from home. Nov 3rd is when I have my hip replacement surgery . It will be all right. When I am all healed up I'll be able ( I hope) to running from one side to the other to keep up with O&H and soon the kids when they get to going.
 Thank You all again for reading my blog. Keep and I eye out tho .. you never know , I just might do one or two about the happenings  on the nest cam activities while I'm re-cooping ...LOL

WOW what a morning is all I can say!!!!

The morning starts off like usual. Nice and quiet , Ozzie and Harriet in the cam 2 tree. Donna arrives Harriet does some vocalizing then off to the nest she goes and Ozzie stayed in the cam 2 tree. Then all of a sudden we hear a crash , booom!!!!  We jump up turn around and a car had hit the garbage truck and is  the medium just before the Church (east side) OMG! Smoke coming out the the front of the car , shit every where and thank God the traffic had stopped . The guys from the garbage truck go over to check on the driver and Donna is calling 911 and walking towards the accident to see if any one is hurt. I'm telling you what ...People need to pay attention when driving. That car's front and passenger side was bad. Again Thank God there was no one in the passenger side.
This whole time  Ozzie and Harriet are not fazed by any of this.  While we weren't looking they both left. Next we see Harriet coming in from the west pasture with a squirrel. Harriet finishes her breakfast then heads down to the pond for a drink or maybe Ozzie is there because it took her awhile to come back from the pond...later we see Ozzie coming from the west pasture tree line. He must have been over there sitting and watching.. LOL
Harriet heads to the old cam 2 tree from the pond and does some preening. Ozzie heads to the nest checks to see if there is any thing left of the squirrel , then off to the pond for his drink of water. Done with getting himself a drink Ozzie joins Harriet their favorite sitting tree (old cam 2) . Both are preening and just looking around. Well don't you just know it... there is mating this morning.
I swear Harriet had a smile on her face ! LOL
With that all done, Ozzie sits next to Harriet and looks at her like "Who's Eagle !?" and Harriet just looks down at her talons as if to be saying " Oh Lord !"

Ozzie then jumps up a branch and the both look the other way as if they just realized we were standing down there watching them and might have been a bit embarrassed.

Harriet does a bit of preening ,Ozzie has his back to us and life goes on.
 Ozzie then heads off to the cellar ... that's a branch down below the nest that has a lot of pine and moss. Ozzie blends in well there . If you didn't see him go there you wouldn't find him.  This is the second time I have seen him sit there. Harriet is still in the fave tree looking around then heads over to the nest tree. After a few mins, Ozzie joins Harriet in the nest tree. So they are just hanging out and I have to do a nature call, so I drive over to Publix . As I'm coming out of the store I see one of them coming across the parking lot headed back to the nest tree. I thought now how nice was that for one of them to come and check on me.  :) I get back over to the church and Harriet is just a squawking! I look up in time to see another Eagle headed to the nest area and Donna is trying to tell me they both took off towards Publix and she was going to leave when here came Harriet then Ozzie with some food. Then a Juvie about 3-4 yrs old come's flying into the nest area and all hell brakes lose. Harriet squawking and guarding the food Ozzie carrying on and the Juvie flying over head. WOW !!!!
  The Juvie flew towards the Church then circled around and came back to the nest area then back over towards the Church and kept going. My heart is racing again just telling you about it. It was very exciting to watch and hear.    

The Juvie leaves the area and Harriet can enjoy her meal. Harriet done with her food and goes up to the upper branches and feaks her beak.. I had some things to do so I left them sitting there all nice and calm  just surveying their home.

Sitting  at the nest looking at the stars just before the sun peeks over the horizon and gives the sky that orange-st glow and the fog slowly lifting from the pasture and Harriet greeting another day with that familiar vocal of her's, is such an awesome feeling. I have always enjoyed the early morning hours when every thing is just just waking up. The colors , the sounds, the beauty of it all and the fact that I am alive to enjoy another great day.

Day brakes  and I see Ozzie and Harriet sitting side-by-side again in the nest tree. Harriet vocalizing. Not sure which one but guessing Ozzie was the first to drop down into the nest followed by Harriet. They do some moving of sticks and fluffing of the nest bowl checking things out for the day ahead of them. Ozzie steps up on to the front branch then leaves. I'm watching as he heads off to the river. Harriet then steps up to the front branch and she leaves headed to the river. Well no work for them today. They did work pretty hard yesterday and it is such a beautiful morning to be any where but home, So I'll not be upset with them today for not sticking around.
 Desiree , Linda , Jay  and I were the only ones there this morning. Jay did get a photo of Ozzie as he flew over the pond area  by Publix's as he was getting some sunrise photo's.
  We all sat talking or taking photo's of other birds while waiting for them to come back but not this morning.  They have other plans for the day.
I left around 11:35 am still no one home. It was still a great day at Ozzie and Harriet's .

I tried to get a photo of the Big Dipper over the Church.
 

Fog lifting in the west pasture
 

The Sunrise photo I got , the color doesn't show up to well here so sorry I can't post it but you should have seen it. Just beautiful.

What a great Saturday.  Ozzie and Harriet were sitting side by side this morning when it got light enough for me to take a photo. How cute!! By this time others started showing up.  Ozzie and Harriet had quite a few visitors this morning.  Here we go with the Names...... Dona (Giggling) , Barb, Desiree, Jim,  Sandra ( Gleeful) , Janet (Happytojoin) Lynn & Hubby, Joni ( was a bit late) Jeff , Jay, Vicki, Donna M,  Christine Mudd Caro, and my self.  

Phewww! Pretty soon I'll just have to say "A group of us" lol

The morning started off just like Thursday and Friday , They both left right after checking out the nest. They headed towards the river. So we were all a bit disappointing but settled into chit-chatting and waiting to see if they would come back. Barb and I head over to Publix and just as we get back, 

Ozzie returns Yay. He brought in some grass then fly's up to the upper branch. He looks for some pine , missed it then heads to the right pond tree full of cattle egrets. They all fly off and Ozzie try's to get a branch that doesn't happen so off he goes around the pond then lands in the left pond tree clearing that of cattle egrets. Takes off from there back around the pond again then fly's over all of us , to the west pasture over to the tree across the road and gets a stick from there and back to the nest tree. Places the stick and goes to the porch branch to rest. I need a rest too after typing all that. Ozzie then heads up to the upper branch and waits for Harriet to show up. Harriet arrives home with a branch and Ozzie is in the nest to place that stick. Ohhh this is were the beaking war beings. Harriet really wants to place the stick and move other ones around and Ozzie is having none of it! Harriet even stands up to Ozzie and vocalizes her intentions. Lots of beaking . Of course we have running commentary  on the ground from all of us....LOL  Ozzie went over to the west pasture tree line looking for just the right stick. Took a couple of try's but found the right one. back to the nest he headed. On his way ,Ozzie was adjusting the stick and lost it so back to the west treeline he went. This time he makes all the way into the nest branch  with moss and all..... Beaking wars 2 breaks out...LOL They nudge and push each other out of the way and Harriet wins the branch.! Harriet placed the stick where she wanted it to be. Ozzie heads in for the move and pulls the stick towards him and places it . Harriet pulls the stick from where Ozzie placed it and put it right back where she had it. The look on Ozzie face was priceless.Again Ozzie would pull and put the stick right back where he had it.

Again Harriet would pull and put the stick right in front of her and Ozzie would grab it from the side and put it back in front of him. Back and forth this went on for a few mins. So the beaking war continues, a few more branches brought in and more "discussions" of where the branches go. 

Around 9:50 am or so , Ozzie leaves headed east towards the river. I didn't get a pic so not really sure of the time he left. Harriet leaves headed in the same direction. Well we figure they are done for the day ..nope we hear Harriet just a squeeeeing ! Here come's Ozzie with a fish and Harriet right on his tail. Both headed to the nest. Ozzie no more than lands and Harriet is landing on the nest too. A little scuffle and Harriet get's the fish. Ozzie leaves the nest to get him a drink down at the pond.  

Dona and I race ( well not really but close ) to the pond to get some photo's of Ozzie. On our way up the driveway to go back to the church side , Ozzie is up in the nest tree so we stop and get some more photo's and mating shots too. Wooohoo. Eagle pron seems to be on the agenda again .... LOL

Theses two have no privacy at all. I'm beginning to feel like a peeping Tom or worst. lol

We make it back to the other side and Ozzie and Harriet hang around for a little bit. Ozzie leaves headed over the church. Harriet sits and watches him for a bit then she leaves towards the west and circles and circles up and up soaring then over the nest area headed to the east. 

So glad that Ozzie and Harriet came back this morning. They are as always so entertaining to watch. I really didn't want to go another day with out seeing them for awhile .Four days was enough.  Soon I will only be seeing them on the cam. With all my Doctor Appointments it has been finally decided I need to get my hip taken care of. This has been the cause of all my pain , not my knee. So the days I have left before I have to sit at home are numbered.  Monday I'll know the date of my surgery and will let you all know. But in the mean time, I'll keep going to the nest and enjoy my time with them and everyone else. If it works out right I'll be home watching eggs being laid and babies hatching..Woohoo I can't think of a better way to spend my re-cooping time . Can you ??????  

Harriet like.. "don't you touch my sticks"

Ozzie ."Did you just take that stick Harriet?"

"Woman are you crazy ?"

" Don't call me crazy and I'm moving sticks today where you like it or not!!!"

"I should have brought her this first thing this morning then  maybe she wouldn't have been so cranky"

Getting ready for some hanky-panky

The bad thing about this side of the nest, if you don't move before they start the cam is in the photo. They are on the attic branch.

Ahhh Monday morning came way to fast even for this retired person. I get to the nest my usual time and don't see O&H but was pretty sure they were there. They have been spending the some night's in the front pine trees.  Dona arrived some time after 6:00 am . It's not long that we hear Ozzie then Harriet. Donna is getting some pics of the Little Dipper and then the Moon. Then the all to familiar sound of Harriet welcoming the morning. We say good morning to her and Ozzie and wait for them to head to the nest. Well this morning there was a delay. They were doing the wild thing before heading over to the nest to begin their day. Now let me tell you , there was mating 5 times today!!!! Twice in the front pine tree and 3 times on the nest tree that we could see . Ozzie at one point left  towards the north  for a bit and came back. Then that's when (not one right after another) but close enough the other 3 mating's took place. Now did Ozzie go to the corner drug store and get some Viagra or did he just get some really good sleep last night. Harriet even vocalized with what seemed like her.... ahem enjoyment of one of the mating's.  Oh my. ...We all were needing a cigarette by then.  When I say we. I mean Dona . Jay , Desiree, Donna M , and myself.
Ok now on to the branch getting and grass.  Ozzie and Harriet first check out the nest to see what is needed. Ozzie heads over the the dead tree closest to us on the Church side and does some preening before he starts his busy day of building. Ozzie heads back to the nest to make sure Harriet didn't do to much moving of things.
 Ozzie was back and forth from the tree across the road and the tree at the west pasture tree line getting sticks. Ozzie brought in grass from the nest pasture and as he is heading in ,Harriet ducks so Ozzie doesn't hit her. Ozzie kind of missed judged his landing a bit... for he was a little unsteady when he landed on the attic branch. They are both in the nest moving this and moving that . Of course Harriet moves to much stuff and Ozzie lets her know it's time for her to go sit on one of the branches. The look  he gives her is just so funny. Harriet goes to the front branch and Ozzie does his thing. Harriet once again joins Ozzie in the nest. She must have told him time to get some more pine because Ozzie takes off out of the nest to try and get some pine off the nest tree. He didn't get it. But that's ok  Ozzie heads over to the tree depot across the road for a stick and brings one back.  Harriet then leaves the nest and try's for her some pine . She too comes up empty talon. Harriet comes back to the nest tree and joins Ozzie on the attic branch. This could be one of the 3 mating's on the nest tree. (There was mating at 9:10 , 9:21 and  9:40 am on the attic branch ) by the time on my photo's.
  After a bit Harriet try's again and goes for some pine, this time she get's some and brings it back. Ozzie heads out again for another stick and after placing it joins Harriet on the attic branch again. There was mating again . This was the last one.....LOL Both sat there doing some preening and just looking around. By 9:44 am they both left headed over behind Pbulix. I stayed for a while talking to Desiree then headed home. Ozzie and Harriet didn't come back
We did have a few two legged visitors to the nest .  A lady from New York who was down to visit  her Daughter that lives in  Orlando but made a detour to the nest. Another gal that is an Eagles 4 kids watcher but loves Ozzie and Harriet too .  And one other couple that I didn't get a chance to meet was there also.
I will not have a blog for the next 2 day's . I have Doctor appts and I don't dare go to the nest before them or I'll never make it to the appts. ...lol   I'll be back out at the nest Thursday.
Thank You for reading and have a great day. :)

A sweet little kiss behind the pine.
