11:15AM-From left to right. Rosie, a dead rat, Judson in his egg (See the pips?), Kiku, and Archie.
11:30AM See the bit of shell that has flecked up off the rest of the egg on top? Go slightly right and down. See Judson's egg tooth poking through.
11:52AM Kiku and Archie spar over Judson as she works on hatching. Dead rat is a helpful brace on occasion.
11:54 AM Rosie watches as Bobby heads for the nest.
11:55AM Rosie leaves; Bobby watches. Kiku looks at Judson. Still working.
11:56 AM Rosie returns with a leafy wand of a branch.
11:56:33 AM Rosie places the twig. Rosie and Bobby watch.
11:56:51 AM Rosie, Kiku, and Archie watch Bobby leave. Judson is otherwise occupied. Kiku and Archie begin to spar again. Rosie watches. Judson appears to be resting.
12:42:08 PM Rosie removes egg membrane from shell.
12:42:33 PM Rosie holds slip of membrane in her beak.
12:42:47 PM Rosie leaves nest with membrane in beak. Eyasses alone. And Judson has obviously finished hatching under her mother.
