Spring is in the air as mating season in Colorado begins. For me that means I will spend every chance I get observing this pair, just as I did last weekend.
Activity at their nest was relatively quiet although I did get to watch them bring in some nesting material and saw the male bring a fish back for his mate to enjoy for breakfast. They spent some time perched together, just taking it easy allowing me to capture a number of nice shots of the happy couple including this one.
Any day now I would expect her to lay eggs and begin sitting in the nest. Once she days, it then becomes a 35 day countdown to hatching.
