Much cooler temperatures today, freeze warning for many.
Luna is still. No look at the eggs today. She’s rotated but haven’t been looking in on them yet today.
Unless she did when cam was No Signal.
Luna is still today. Cooler temps, no need to regulate temperature. Significantly cooler today… Still waiting for a look at those eggs!
Small branch/branches from the tree is inside the nest box… clear view.
Note: Beginning today, Images posted in the forum may be added in theatre mode. Which means when you click on them, they are the largest images yet… and sharp!
Still testing the waters/pixels…
Theatre view- Test.
Stunning owl. Hatch Watch!!!
On and off again. Luna was resting facing the back corner, sunny, the downy brood feathers were moving slightly in the breeze. Crossed fingers and toes!
Cam is back on air!
Stormy day today. High hopes it’s a minor problem for everyone.
Luna checks her eggs again shortly after this photo.
Branch makes sound outside, wind is picking up.
IR cam came on, rain n winds expected, just after I took this photo, cam went Off Air.
Back On Air.
Beautiful Luna.
Egg Inspection… every hour she’s checking them out!
Egg inspection… again.
Soon we may be able to hear the chicks from within the eggs!!!
I imagine Luna hears and feels them.
Another fantastic expression.
Egg inspection.
Today, Luna’s eggs are 28 days, 25 days and 22 days old. Getting about that time!
Luna left abt 9:30pm and returned 9:39pm.
Pretty.
Luna left 7:54pm and I missed her returning, but she was back prior to 8:09pm
Noche returns about 10:25pm. He calls to Luna but doesn’t come in/to the nest box, sounded farther away. She went to greet him.
Luna was gazing at her Noche while he was perched above!
Time of food drop was 8:35pm, he paused outside, but briefly entered the nest box, like usual, short stay.
Luna is always excited to see him and he stayed on the perch briefly and hooted before flying away, Nice!!!
Noche visits, food drop! Looked like a mouse.
Nice feather pattern!
She’s looking hungry…
