03-17-2020 A St. Patrick's Day Egg

3/18/2020

The first egg of the season (and decade) arrived just after 6 PM on March 17.  Kewpee popped into the box for about 10 seconds to see the egg then flew off.  He was vocalizing in the background – perhaps scaring off some potential threat.  Rebecca stood up and looked out to see what the squawking was about.  There is a short video of her and the egg.  If she follows the same pattern as previous years, there will probably be an egg laid every other day.  She has laid four eggs each year.
