Chat Log from May 22, 2026 on LoonCam 2 – right after egg 1 arrived

6:40 AM@beatricel.9859​​I agree Debra… I am not sure she laid it

6:40 AM@beatricel.9859​​It seems strange that she left the nest at this point

6:42 AM@KingOfsilent_loon​​is there eggs

6:43 AM@debrab8109​​Not seeing an egg, she’s sure to be back Beatrice

6:43 AM@beatricel.9859​​I do hope so, Debra

6:45 AM@loonychick822​​Wow, she was definitely trying to lay an egg Béatrice. I couldn’t see one come out, but maybe it did as she set her bottom down……

6:53 AM@loonychick822​​That is one fluffy, comfy looking nest LPC has put out here

6:53 AM@debrab8109​​Just waiting for a lovely little egg LC

6:55 AM@loonychick822​​Yes. if its not there….it wont be long. I heard a clink as she got off the nest. Hoping it was her band touching an egg

6:58 AM@loonychick822​​hahaha if I had sound on at 6:26 I might have noticed her trying to lsy an egg. Good thing for rewind

7:03 AM@loonychick822​​I’m positive the egg is laid at 6:28:58.

7:04 AM@loonychick822​​You can clearly see the egg sticking out till she sets down. Im certain it came out when she set down

7:04 AM@beatricel.9859​​Really Loonychick ? Did you see it ?

7:04 AM@beatricel.9859​​I will check again

7:04 AM@loonychick822​​You can see the egg coming out. When she lifts her butt again at 6:29 its not there.

7:04 AM@debrab8109​​LC was just watching in full screen with sound effects and it does look like an egg

7:04 AM@debrab8109​​Yup

7:06 AM@loonychick822​​For sure Debra.

7:08 AM@shepqherd5803​​ WOO HOO

7:11 AM@beatricel.9859​​You are right, Loonychick. At 6.28:33 you can see it sticking out.

7:11 AM@loonychick822​​Good thing you spotted her in labor Béatrice

7:22 AM@shepqherd5803​​if that zoom is the egg – its shaped odd

7:22 AM@beatricel.9859​​Lol, Shep…. The egg must be hidden behind

7:23 AM@loonychick822​​thats not the egg Shep

8:03 AM@shepqherd5803​​will she return to turn her egg?

8:04 AM@beatricel.9859​​She certainly will return, Shep. After laying an egg, the female is recuperating elsewhere

8:21 AM@GaviaImmer​​Thank you for the timestamps. An egg! Happiness! It was an ethereal scene, with the mist drifting across the lake this morning.

8:21 AM@603born​​I’m back on at work! OMG I said today was going to be the day! Very Very Eggciting!

8:22 AM@GaviaImmer​​It is so nice to see all you loon friends again. Best time of the year. And thank you, LCO!

8:24 AM@debrab8109​​Hello @GaviaImmer and @603born , it has been a very exciting morning

8:25 AM@603born​​Indeed it has! I said early this morning before leaving for work that today maybe the day! Ty for all the ts

8:30 AM@GaviaImmer​​Good morning, Debra. Now to hope for the loons on LC1. And hope that the flies will not be so aggressive this year.

8:41 AM@debrab8109​​8:32:57 That is not looking so positive regarding flies

8:41 AM@debrab8109​​8:41:18 they’re back

8:42 AM@loonychick822​​Might not be the “loon flies” Debra.

8:43 AM@debrab8109​​Not sure LC but sure bothering them

8:44 AM@shepqherd5803​​they didnt turn the egg?

8:45 AM@debrab8109​​No and not necessary at this point
