Time to get everyone to start singing Tom Lehrer's "Smut" from 1965's "That Was The Year That Was" album (one of my all-time favorite albums) www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaHD...

Ollie and Ralph sleep for like 20 hours a day, and during the day naps, they're almost always snuggled together.

Horus would help me get over my fear/hatred of flying.

I definitely would have started singing along as I was shopping. I've done it before and gotten looks, but it makes food shopping much more enjoyable when there's great music. 😀

She could have built like four nests with the materials she has. Meanwhile, if they're anything like the pair that nest in a tree next to our back steps, after the hatch, we're going to have to deal with the robins yelling at us to go away whenever we use the front door.

the first time in years that I've seen something try to nest there. It's a good spot, sheltered from the rain. Is there anything I could do to assist them. Not sure how, but maybe make the ledge slightly larger with a piece of thin wood? Or am I just dealing with incompetent/young birds? (2/2)

Three of the four eggs have now hatched at the Kingston site. New falcon is getting the hang of feeding them too.

happen last year on the Kingston College cam when the new falcon left the chicks alone until it was time to fledge, and then kept trying to knock them off the ledge (rescuers saved 3 of the 4 last year, thankfully). This year, the new falcon and original tiercel have eggs currently hatching. 3/3

has been feeding the two chicks (eyases) pretty well, but the intruding falcon snatches the food he brings periodically. She's also come into the nest box more to scrounge for food and stares at the chicks. Nature is fascinating/brutal. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vxrg... I watched something similar 2/3

I don't know how I would get any work done. I'd be watching them all day long. 😀

Oh my goodness, I'm so very sorry, Kate. 💔 She was beautiful and I loved watching her play with Wren and her adventures with you.

Amazing. And how many of those Cheerios did Mara get?

Ollie and Ralph smooshed together.

Oh my goodness, how the other two moved in and they all snuggled together. 😍😍😍

So sweet. ❤️

On the positive side, they did spent years pro bono up through the Supreme Court on behalf of Guantánamo Bay detainees and eventually won (Boumediene v. Bush). When I saw there was an EO about WilmerHale, I was thinking that might be mentioned in there too somehow.

I wonder how young 2Aluco is. I hope the weather isn't as tough this year, or it might be a lot more stressful watching the chicks (if any), since the new owl might not be the hunter Aluco was (I still remember the rabbit!) which would put more pressure on Strix (don't know how old he is either).
