Might there be a 6th egg in the morning you could make a shield:

Stop laying: start breeding!!

OH yes, the 6th egg is here!! 9.22 today
She can still lay another 3 or 4 eggs, average is 6-7, so we have to wait and see

its already many eggs for little bird, but seems your summer will be better, if FC catsh all the flies

Right, bring on all FC's - we NEED THEM , the more the better!!
I am confident that nature knows how many eggs can be layed and it seems to me that our FC mama is wife #1 - she will have help feeding the kids!

I wonder if mama FC is about to start incubating - she is so eager in the nest right now, and it is rather late for her to be there... Will she stay the night?? If anyone is up and has a look at the cam - please leave a not if you see her there....

She is there now, restless...

It is not so easy to find the best position to sit on 6 rather big eyes..
she is a tiny bird.
She would like to sleep, head under her wing..but the eggs are not yet
in the right place...

Turning and turning again..

Awwww - I woke up and I had to come and take a look! Poor girl, this is probably all new to her. She might lay a 7th egg but I think this is it. 2 weeks from tonight - and we should have "FC-lets".
Good luck little mama

Yes, she appears to be staying the night! She sleeps a little, and then fusses a lot over the eggs; shaking her "shoulders" trying to get comfortable on them. She is trying her best.

Still six eggs. I suppose that you and I are the two current viewers.

She is back

11.25 How to sit easy on these eggs ???

happy 7th egg!

11.27
Back and "talking" with an outside bird...male??

Oh my!! She layed a 7th egg while we were ayway
What will she do next???

She might have been uncomfortable last night because of the egg inside her ???

I would say: because of the eggs under her...
How an inside egg feels she knows..but sitting on so many eggs is new and has to be practized to find the best way...

The inside egg is in the "wrong place".... for incubating. She needed her tummy for the other eggs and then there was one on th einside in the way
I sure hope that she feels more comfortable the coming night - it was hard to see her struggle...

So you found the answer yourself on your question...

Not sure about that , I am just coming up with ideas.....

7 might be enough..

yes, eggs seems to be in right places

who knows when she left???

Caysa, do you know or can you see on the video at what time she left?

No, she comes and goes a lot. Now she is in the nest.

I am a bit worried....FC-mom is incubating the eggs during the night.... Yesterday she came and went, came and went.... Today she left around 6 am, and now she has not been back (it is 7.20). And... I have not seen the male . Does he have another more important wife?? I hope mom is not giving up on the eggs.......

Still empty

ct. 11.35

She is "in" and spending LONG LASTING WARMTH !

Yes - lovely!!
