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
