Someone caught this photo and posted it on Twitter this morning.  The 4th eyas was observing the feeding from the safety of its egg.  All 4 should be present and accounted for this morning.

I finally got a picture of the 4th egg but it doesn't look like much progress has been made.  Mom has been busy brooding and pushing the little ones back under her most of the day.  It's amazing how gentle they can be with their sharp beaks.

I just checked the website and the hole in the 4th egg is bigger but I didn't see any movement.  Mom is still brooding it but I'm starting to think that it won't fully hatch.

I saw the egg last night..doesn't look good for the baby.  Sad

The last hatch was on April 23rd and the remaining egg has a huge hole in it.  I just checked and Mom is still brooding the egg.  I assume at some point she will give up and concentrate on the 3 babies that hatched.

Banding happening now.  Three females.  They are evacuating for a fire alarm (which is just barely louder than the eyas they're banding.  To be continued......

Not a fire alarm after all.  They said the eyas set off the alarm so they are banding #3 now.

"...the eyas set off the alarm"
How was that managed? Was it sound-activated?

They said the alarm calls of the 2nd eyas while it was being banded set off the alarm system in the building.  They turned it off but it happened again when they started on the 3rd eyas.  They wasted no time in turning it off that time.  I haven't seen any names yet but they were banded red, white and blue.

They don't name their Falcons..just call them by their band colors..Red Girl, White Girl and Blue Girl.

Just checked the website and the blue tape female has made it back to the ledge with her siblings.  I wonder how far it is from the roof to the ledge?

Looks like the ledge is on the top floor
