7:35 p.m.: Nice views of the wee little bobblehead, after Ma steps out into the nest. Definitely not a lot of upper-body control for the poor thing. But that will come.

from about 6:30 am - I was too busy watching the chick to know if there was a switch in adults.

Chick looked very strong - hard to imagine s/he is only 14 hours old! This is a 90 second video of the chick - there's sound, and the wind is quite loud, as is a call by the adult.

Good Morning Bev and Judy, thank you so much for the early morning updates! the video is precious Judy, ty!
I was putting in some laundry when I heard Mom calling there a little over a half hour ago....came running in time to see
the strong little one looking up and wow, so active and alert...so great to see! My heart melted as I watched how Dad kept looking down with
so much admiration at her.....took him a while to settle "just right" :love:
Now quiet, brooding and incubating at 7:15 am
