Well, for the last two days I've watched early in the A.M. before the sun even rises there. As soon as it's light there, around 8:50 CT, they trade places. This morning, the male, number 10, came up to relieve the female, number 26. To see them both together for a few minutes in the nest is just way cool for me.

They'll be trading places in a few minutes
It's just getting light on the nest now. Watch if you want to see them both.

I'm supposed to be doing something else, now I am riveted. You're right, she's seems to be getting the house in order and keeps getting up and looking down to see if the egg is hatching. Maybe it is moving around.
This is a big deal.
