[QUOTE="SRL, post: 365360, member: 701"] We had a pair of raptors in a zoo in our region that did the same thing after many years of living in captivity, and despite having physical handicaps that made it unlikely for them to mate. The only thing that was different was that a wild one was hanging around that there was thought that his presence either stimulated the action, or perhaps he dropped in for a fling. ;) The wild one took off and left the pair to tend the nest, which they did faithfully until it was part hatching time and was clear the eggs weren't viable. It was interesting. The zoo had to get special permission from the feds to allow the pair to keep the eggs because of the legalities involved. [/QUOTE]
