The 3rd egg was hard to see, she laid it and immediately went to sleep

Okay so what are the nominated names; Talon, Suh, Liberty are the ones I remember. Any more?

Big Red is still sleeping. Must be exhausted.

Over 5225 viewers now!

I have been busy so I haven't been able to catch a shot of the third egg in a pic yet. Should be able to get it in the next switch or egg roll. I doubt they will leave the eggs uncovered much now that the 3 are all out.

Mom is back on after dad took his turn for the morning.

Here is egg #3

She seemed pretty worn out on this one. She starts really laboring and getting vocal about the 7:37 point and didn't seem to drop the egg until around the 11:00 point.

Kind of like passing a kidney stone? Or is she thinking, "How many more of these suckers are in there?"

And to give you an idea of how big the nest is:

5-6 ft in diameter 2000-3000 pounds

AND THE FIRST GOOD SHOT I'VE HAD OF THE THREE EGGS!!!!



Perspective time... Each one is about the size of a baseball.

We hit over 5800 viewers on the nest cam. Not sure what the record is for this cam but getting close to 6000.

10:30 - another egg roll

[BigRedIggy]

Yet another switch mom calls on dad and he takes his usual sweet time. I kinda figured now that we have all 3 eggs they wouldn't leave them uncovered long. Guess I was wrong.



(Note... not much happens from the :40 sec to the 4:30 point, may want to ffw)
