So it has been about one month, and somebody is back sitting on the nest!
 When she flies off, I take a peek inside and there are 4 little eggs. I did not get the first 3 cleaned out, but I'm hoping she did before she laid these new eggs!
 She's been on the nest day and night for the past 3 days. I'm thinking the time may be soon!
Daddy is even out in the big tree out front. The pair may be getting ready for their full time parenting job soon!
 Funny.....she's watching me watching her!

She takes a quick break, so I swoop in get a picture....still 4 perfect little eggs, but they've been rotated and they are further towards the front of the nest now.
 
May 4, 2013  The nest has been abandoned. I read up on this, and it might be because the eggs are not fertilized. For whatever reason, I'm hoping someone else will roost here again!

First Signs of the new arrival! Peeps #1



This afternoon when I noticed mama out on the tree branch, I snapped the first picture, still 3 little eggs. Tonight after we got home from eating dinner out I had to make one more nest check. Sure enough, it looks like Peeps #1 is making its way out of the egg tonight!

Patrolling the Nest

Still 3 perfect little eggs in the nest. 
Keeping a close watch on this little family. 
Can't wait until they hatch!
