Day 29.

Bush eggs: one. Nest box eggs: none. Feed hopper: three-quarters full. Amount of time spent in the dust bath: lots.

I found a great nest site today but Jack is keeping a close eye on me after our discussions. Will have to remember it though.

Steve was finally let out of the broody box and is having a great time with the chicks. She was tempted to join me in the dust bath but I convinced her that there was no room for her and her vulnerable chicks. Not strictly true but having the dust bath all to myself allowed me to indulge my loopy side and get totally on my back, legs in the air, dust flying – wonderful.
