Ruth wasn't feeling well this morning so I took her place at mom's house. The big news was Jackie laid an egg. Of course when I arrived at mom's the eagle camera was already on. We watched that for a while, watched Jackie get up and let out a loud screech to call Shadow.
Shadow arrived to take her place so Jackie flew off to find some breakfast. Below she is looking back to make sure Shadow was going to sit on the egg.
He first arranged the nest a bit then sat down to keep the egg warm.
Jackie came back pretty quickly. Shadow left then within minutes arrived with a fish for Jackie. It is interesting to see how she reacts when she is brooding. She was glad to see and asks nicely for the fish. Shadow left, Jackie ate the fish, every single bite, then settled back down again. By this time it was almost time for lunch. Mom and I were sitting at the table watching the finches eat lunch at her bird feeder.
Mom was back in the recliner by the time Karin arrived. I left to do some grocery shopping at Aldi. A quiet day.
