16 Sep 2012: Preparing the Nursery

This morning, after a few days of cold heavy rain, the sky cleared for the warm spring sun. The female took a short glide to a nearby tree, spreading her wings to dry off. Then she selected a nice soft leafy branch to add to the lining of the nest.

 This one will do nicely...
