A little good news

A week or two after Hazel left me I went down to see where she was hanging out and I saw a female on the tree she had been perching on. But it wasn't her. And then a male came to the tree and snuggled with her. I thought that was very strange that there were two mated pairs living in the same small territory. Much later I didn't see Hazel anymore so I assumed she was sitting on eggs somewhere. BUT... It turns out that Mr. Kestrel was two-timing on Hazel and she gave him the bird, so to speak, and went home. I came to this conclusion because my sponsor just yesterday wrote me an email telling me he had seen my bird a couple of times recently within 100 yards of where I first caught her. Hopefully I can tempt her with a couple of free mice.
