2/11/25 AM Eggciting


640 COG Change in.Of the guard.


Scout left at 653 am. Back at 6:56 am.

Scout rolled the egg at 8:16. He called out to Bella at 8:19 and she returned to incubate. 8:22 AM back on the egg She goes.. He seems to be doing well at the  routine.

8;39.34 AM 3 Loud gunshots heard Bella is jumps up off the egg bowl and flies to the 8:40 AM. LOP.   8:42  1 More gunshot. 8:43 Scout returns and sits on the crib rail while Bella remains on the lookout post. I wonder if that was her what made the little noise when he landed. 8:45 Bella and Scout have a conversation about something. Scout moves into the nest, but no one is incubating. 848 Bella calls out again. 850 Bella has a big shuggle and 851 Scout flies out of the nest. 852 Bella jumps in the nest - checks the egg bowl and at 853 begins to incubate. The egg was exposed for 14 minutes. 903 Bella seems calm, and has readjusted a couple of times while incubating. Randy from NCTC  will be calling law enforcement to let them know.We have a egg to stop any further hunting in the area. Isn't it wild when one tiny little egg could stop something.

957 am Both eagles fly off. Egg is unattended. 959 Scout returns and incubate yeah!

 1024 Bella returns to the LOP, Scout remains in the nest. 1027 Scout is off the egg momentarily but returns and fluffs up the bole. 

Bella still on the LOP. 1035 jumps off, Bella still on the LOP. 1036 Bella rolls the egg and incubates.
