Checking in April 14, 2011

Checking in on the family progress on April 14, showed evidence of the female assisting with the nest building (see photo's). in the time spent, they were both flying around the nest and the male had a fish he did not share. And they did not spend any time in the nest.The male seemed especial timid, and would fly away when I approached, but the female was much more cooperative.
Note the strands of plant material wrapped around the females talons.













Strands of what appear to be corn husks follow the female in flight.
