4/8/06 Still Sitting on Nests

Both Pair are still sitting on their nests and male and female are taking turns with incubation of eggs. On 4/9/06 the male spent a lot of time bring extra twigs to the female in the upper nest (nest 2) for her to add to the nest during the time we were watching them.
