21 June 0710 hours There are no new eggs. I am concerned
that PK FW ♂♀ may have deserted. ♀ saw as I stood
at nest but I never heard any try from ♀. The next cup
was dry but not warm, I added 2 more canary eggs,
leg away of pepper. Likewise at pair w/ few egg
cavity no new eggs. Canary eggs felt like warm but not
hot nest cup dry, one of the parents was chirping while
I was at the nest, this stopped when I left to try and
stood at car, I added a 4th canary egg to this clutch.
