Egg Watch

There are still four eggs in Lola and Winston's nest. For the first couple of days, they were taking turns sitting on the eggs, with Winston (as usual) doing most of the work. Now, however, Lola seems to be the main one in the nest basket and Winston is bringing her food and flying patrol around the perimeter of the cage. Lola came out for a bit in the late afternoon to stretch her wings and nibble a bit of millet. When I went in to return the parrots to thier cages for the night and close all the curtains, she joined Winston in the nest and they snuggled down together atop thier precious offspring-to-be.
