So far so good with crows in the area. Last year at this time, crows tried attacking both the nest and Pappa's roosting spot - in an attempt to get at the eggs. Thus far, we haven't had the crow visitors.

On Thursday, my friends gathered in our garden for an outdoor Boot Camp session. Unbeknown to us initially, the male (Pappa) had moved from his roosting spot over the road onto our garden wall. You can imagine how bewildered he looked when he saw us doing pushups and crunches. He hid behind a tree branch and watched the whole session. Wonder what he was thinking...
