Jordan Lake. First Nest. Yesterday there was only a little wind so I managed to get a much better video of Kate and Bard at the nest. Watch as Dad Bard very carefully shows us his feeding behavior with his chick(s).

By First Nest HATCHED!

Jordan Lake. HATCHED! Yes at least one egg has hatched. The way I know that – because obviously I cannot see down into the nest – is by the parent’s behavior. When the parents begin bringing in fish, then stand on the edge and pluck off bites of the fish and reach down to feed it to the chicks, we call that “feeding behavior”. That’s how we know that there’s a chick in the nest – mouth wide open wanting that bite of fish. Yay!

By First Nest Update

Jordan Lake. First Nest. Dad Bard was incubating the egg(s). He stood up, rolled the eggs and promptly nestled down again on them. Hatching should occur this coming week. Captain Doug and I were finally able to cruise yesterday – lake levels had fallen just enough.
