I always think of you, elleng, when Iris returns to her nest at the mouth of Hellgate Canyon. She arrived on April 5th. Yesterday she had a friend on the nest with her. We're all watching and hoping she has a successful clutch this season. Today it is snowing and blowing...but she's chirping away and seems in good shape...at 25 years old!
