in BSD 2:07:29; D in BSD w/stick 2:09:52, he sets it down & tugs on the
protruding stick & then grabs a large twiggy stick from left rail & moves
it (2:10:05) to the right rail; in the meantime, M has been fluffing fluff
& D joins her 2:10:44; by 2:12:10 the fluffing is done & M & D sit
quietly nest to each other enjoying the day, but not for long because the pesky
protruding stick gets D’s attention so he heads over to it & attempts to
move it 2:13:09, which is a no-go so he tweaks it instead; M starts the 1st of many
crop drops 2:26:20; shadow passes behind nest & whoever cast it gets D's

etc., then hops to LB 3:57:28 & out 3:57:30; D in BSD w/fluff 4:0:15, digs
in the nest, looks around then lays down 4:15:47, enjoys the beautiful
afternoon mostly lounging on the nest, repositions a couple of times but is
content to lay around; M flies toward the nest 6:07:48 & past it on the
left side; D stands up 6:08:04; M in BSD w/stick 6:08:14; D pretends to be
working by tweaking sticks at the front of the nest 6:08:22 and then digging; M
nips at that pesky stick 6:08:57 then both dig in the fluff; M goes back to the
pesky stick 6:09:53, not making much headway, while D tweaks a stick on the
front rail; D works on back-right rail 6:12:07 while M tries taming the pesky
stick again; Both dig in the nest 6:16:30; a bit of beaking 6:18:30 then D

w/stick 6:28:55, he places it at the front door 6:29:11 then trims it; D's turn
