Glad some are ...Good Morning Sandi, Jerry. BEagle!<br /><br />Glad some are noting the second egg!! And thanks for the history of the eggs, Sandi! <br /><br />Heard some screeching when I first opened the cam, but must have been something flying over. I think they surely consider that protected air space and feel nothing should fly over or around that tree!! <br /><br />Feeling better this morning, but not completely over this migraine. I will move slow this morning and hope the throbbing fades.<br /><br />Just heard some more screeching and looked over at the cam. Saw no eagle and what looked to be ONE egg.......<br /><br />Then when our Eagle came back and started to settle in, he/she moved some of the nest material and rearranged the OTHER egg and I definitely saw both of them. Amazing how even with that close of a view, we can't completely see into that deep egg cup!<br /><br />Hoping Friday is a good day for all!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06386568569894071904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24421994.post-1509949153020902772016-02-12T07:02:05.868-05:002016-02-12T07:02:05.868-05:00Good morning Sandi and Beagle.

It's a cold one o...Goodorming my eagle friends. It's a cold one outside - 18 degrees but with no wind.<br /><br />Belle was facing the camera when I opened the live feed at 5:45am. She woke at 5:55, stood up, rolled something - or 2 somethings - laid back down facing away from the cam, and is tucked again. When she stood, I did not see one egg, much less two! That egg cup is deep! <br /><br />It sounds like a number of people have spied 2 eggs during an egg roll. I agree that her head movements on the videos looked like she was rolling 2 eggs rather than 1, and the still cam pictures that several people grabbed around 6:25-6:28pm look like Belle is laying an egg. And the timing is right - like BEagle said, almost exactly 72 hours which is consistent for Belle.<br /><br />So now we wait and see if #3 appears. Personally, based on the experiences of the past 2 years, I hope we only have 2 eggs but this is obviously Belle's decision,not mine.<br /><br />On another note, last night Denny tried something called nose vents. They're little ventilated cone shaped pieces of silicone connected with a narrow piece of silicone between them. When they're inserted in your nose, only the little connector piece is visible and Denny said they weren't uncomfortable to wear. You put them in your nose and they keep your nostrils dilated so, if your snoring originates from your nose, these little things should stop it. AND THEY DID! Several times during the night, I could hear his breathing change and know that he would otherwise be snoring. But instead of being loud and annoying, it was just a slightly noticeable sound that I'm certain I can get used to and sleep through - last night I was just very tuned in to his breathing changes.<br /><br />I looked back at the email I sent to Jo and Paula about egg laying dates for the past 2 years that aren't yet on the Yahoo site. In 2014, Belle laid her 3 eggs 3 days apart, on the 17th, 20th, and 23rd of Feb. Last year was a little different. Eggs 1 and 2 were 3 days apart on the 12th and 15th but the 3rd egg didn't arrive til 2/19 - 4 days after #2. So if there's going to be a 3rd egg, it could arrive Sunday or even Monday. However, there have been a couple of years when eggs were laid only 2 days apart so we could see #3 on Saturday. Again, it is what it is - just wanted to share some past history.<br /><br />Today will be some upstairs cleaning and some laundry. Town council meeting tonight to address increased traffic volume and speed through our little part of South Bethany as more and more homes are being built west of us and people use our streets as a cut-through to get to Route 1, the main highway running north and south.<br /><br />Have a greyt day all - stay warm if you happen to be in the path of this arctic air mass! Did you know the temperature on Zanzibar is about 85 degrees every day of the year?Sandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11486083530915103000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24421994.post-15514025220494096582016-02-12T03:29:15.155-05:002016-02-12T03:29:15.155-05:00Hooray!

Saw vid of the laying and then a friend saw egg roll and confirmed 2 eggs. Congrats to all. Wondering if there will be an egg #3 this year? I know there has been for past 2 years, even though each of those years only 2 fledged. With old cam we never really knew what happened to the chicks that did not make it. I surely wish them a successful and healthy season regardless of how many eggs they have. Glad there is that nice deep egg cup to keep them warm in this artic cold snap.
