Lame-Duck I have indeed had pine nuts  More info | May 30, 2019 05:22 | #18187 paul katinas wrote in post #18869667 Thanks Mike. The eggs will be hatching at the Skimmer nest-site soon. Hopefully snap some images. I did not know they nest together in large numbers like this. Very interesting shot, Paul. You second shot shows exactly why they are called skimmers. Perfect shot. LD, or Mike

If she excepts the bait they'll mate, hilarious behavior. Interesting behavior. Kind of like accepting a wedding ring I suppose. LD, or Mike
