Two’s Company…
We are happy to report that we have spotted a 2nd egg in the nest box! This new egg was laid at approximately 6:06 pm, on a warm but rainy evening in Richmond on 3/24. This new egg can be identified by its brighter coloration and sheen relative to the first egg which is duller in appearance. It’s likely that we may see a third egg laid this weekend so be sure to tune in then. And, if you want to see the moment the second egg was revealed, check out our video below!
