This was a scary moment for those of us watching the livestream tonight. Harriet was sleeping and when she got up to roll egg #2 she turned around and it looked like E21 was on her foot and she accidentally flings the baby towards the rails and completely out of the nest bowl! For the next 9 minutes E21 waits patiently chirping for Mom to bring it back under her. Harriet is amazing and took control of the situation. Thankfully M15 built those nest guard rails so high that the baby was protected even in this unforeseen circumstance! Harriet will figure out how to continue to incubate egg#2 which is hatching and at the same time pull & roll E21 back underneath her safely!! Harriet gets Mom of the Year award tonight! A 2 day old hatchling could not survive in the cold weather being left unprotected!

M15 flies back to the attic shortly after this episode and Harriet vocalizes her greeting when he lands! M15 drops to the nest thinking he can incubate but Harriet was not about to get up after just getting E21 situated and E22 hatching! M flies back up to the attic to stand guard over his family. Thank you for watching!
