I checked the box and the egg total is up to four. I took Lucy out last night around 11:30 and realized that she sometimes sniffs around and does her business very close to the nest box. Plus, there's always me saying imploringly "make your wee, Lu!" and giving ample verbal praise after the deed is done. I assume that Mama is sitting on the nest at night because it's still dipping into the upper 30's at night. Those eggs won't make it unless she does. So now I'm going to start worrying that we'll scare Mama from her nest. Perhaps I can develop a way of communicating telepathically with the dog....
