...for not paying attention. I check nest boxes every day to see when my mating pairs lay their eggs, usually in the morning. But I didn't check Sinatra & Chimay's yesterday. I realized this morning that I hadn't seen her yesterday so I peeked in the box. There she was, valiantly protecting her egg. First one of the new clutch. So I wrote it on the calendar, like I always do.
Later, I checked again & lo & behold, there is a SECOND egg. So apparently the first egg was not laid this morning. Either yesterday or the day before, but I'm betting yesterday.
Now to see how many she lays and whether we get any more of those lovely Lutinos like Chablis.
