My Season 13 Playlist on my channel includes ground videos from my summer visits to the nest pasture. There are also four ground videos from early summer (after the cams went off for Season 12), in my Season 12 Playlist. Here are the playlist links, if interested:

Video opens with F23 arriving at the pond, gliding in with something in her feet. It appears to be nesting material. F23 swoops over the pond, dipping her feet in an apparent fishing attempt. She lands at the water's edge on the E bank, and leaves the material (whatever it is) where she lands. She gets a sip, then takes off for a second fishing attempt. F23 catches a fish and takes it to the office oak to eat, out of view. M15 watches from the nest. The action is replayed in slomo + Zoom.

F23 leaves the office oak and flies to the pond for sips and a dip. CamOps was not available to zoom (a much better zoom than I can edit in). F23 wades in for a soak and a bath. I included some short Zoom clips of F23 bathing. F23 does some head dunks, body dunks, shoulder dips, and wing swishes. When done bathing, F23 heads to the bank and flaps the water off. She flies to the office oak to dry. CamOps pans from Cam1 and finds F23 in the office oak, drying off. M15 watches over while incubating. Time stamps below, if interested. Click on any time stamp to advance to that part. (Note: The cams are skipping; hopefully they can be fixed remotely soon.)
