    Did you see how many eggs she has? I only saw one when I first started watching, but she wasn't completely standing up.

    She is very "busy." I have a male pigeon, Milly, on fake eggs right now, and he stays frozen like a statue for hours at a time. The eagle is very different. I suppose she doesn't have as much to fear.

    We saw 2 eggs. I don't think there were any more.

    So you really are a "pigeon lover"? I was wondering about that! Cool.

    If there were a safe way to do it. It's more stressful, almost, to think about him home being babysat than thinking about a 374 mile ride!

    Well, if he is occupied on his fake eggs, at least he's not getting into any trouble. Good luck Saturday. I guess it should be "good luck Saturday and Sunday," right?

    By the way, go over to the racing thread and respond to the woman who asked about ultracycling and brevets. You're really the sage.

    That eagle is just awesome...where is Hornby Island?

    Nanci, your pigeon is very cool, I love how you saved him...not many would've taken the time.
