Title pic is momma finally getting some rest after being up all night from the storm that rolled through. I’m a few states north of here and we got the rain after she did, and it wasn’t pleasant. I feel every time I check the cam, it’s always windy looking and her tufts are always blowing around and the branch mounted cam is all shakey. She’s a tough and determined bird!
I feel we need a name for these 2 if we’re going to be keeping an eye on them. Any good ideas?

One commenter mentioned eggs can withstand down to -27 F for brief periods of time. I’ll have to look into that.
