After looking at some of my captures from the time span involved, I think the second egg was laid between 7:21 and 7:25 p.m., March 11.

The captures are not of the best, but to my eye there is a second egg there.
I'm attaching the two captures in question, one with the egg shape circled.


The captures were taken from KJRH Hawk Cam live video. I don't know whether we will get another look during the night. It's cold in Tulsa tonight, and Kay has had her head tucked under a wing most of the night thus far. For around ten minutes this evening, Kay was very restless in the nest--standing to nudge the egg, shifting her position on top of it several times. A few minutes into this restlessness, she began to take more of a crouching stance, not standing up, but not settled way down into the nest as earlier.


We will have our definitive photos in the very early light of day. I'm certain a number of folks will will be watching intently, fingers on their capture keys. And someone (or more than one) will get back to you with the solid evidence.

Photos attached
#1 7:35 p.m.
#2 8:29 p.m.

MORE TO COME!! D.B.
