Mrs. Finch is spending more time on the nest now. I don't know if she is spending the night on the nest and will endevor to check that out this evening.
It seems that Mr. Finch is not very attentive as he has been very scarce lately.
So without further ado... Egg #3 and it's older siblings:
If I'm not mistaken, isn't that a face on the upper left egg? |
Watching Mrs. Finch sit in her nest, I see her eyes close but never for long. Sometimes she will "awake" with a start and quickly check things out to the left and right. Other times the eyes just open a little and she just sits for a while. She turns her eggs about 4 or 5 times an hour. This morning she left the nest for just a few minutes (so I could take a picture?). Maybe that was just a potty break. I imagine sitting on a nest is a pretty boring job at this stage... do you think finches dream?
Whoohoo!!
