Day 12 — Day N — Steady incubation; courtship feeding visits cluster mid-morning and late afternoon

Through the overnight hours and into early morning, the female stays on the nest cup almost continuously, visible in IR across both Tapo and sunroom interval cameras. A brief gap appears at 03:52 — an empty cup with eggs visible — before she settles back in. Through the 04:00 and 05:00 hours she barely shifts. The first daylight recess comes at 06:36, with all five eggs clearly visible in the empty cup, and she returns by 06:42. The male first appears at 07:10, perching briefly near the nest while she incubates — the first of many courtship-feeding visits today. He returns around 08:37, and again at 09:29–09:30 in a longer sequence where he briefly enters the cup himself before she resumes incubation. A short recess at 09:02 leaves the eggs exposed for about two minutes. Mid-morning continues steady, with another male visit at 10:19. A longer recess runs 11:03–11:07. The male visits again at 11:44, 12:52, and through the 14:00 hour during a more complex sequence: she leaves at 14:03, he arrives at 14:08 and settles into the cup briefly, departs at 14:11, and she returns at 14:12 — overlapping with him at the nest rim before he leaves at…
