My Time with Ozzie & Harriet

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. :)
