Ok, who cried when they saw the nest box!!! ME!! I'm a crier lately!

Don't make me come down there!

Mom will be up there more when the other 2 get back! Oh boy!

First hatch for Dorothy & E2!

SWEET! Thanks Ei!

http://www.thestar.com/news/article/979179--harlequin-falcons-settle-into-love-nest It made the paper already!! Look at that nest box!!! 

3 eggs for the little Stone Owls!!   

2 hatched!! I snipped this off the video!

Not yet and no mention of eggs but she has just found them so I'm sure we'll get more information now that she knows where Polly and Algo are!!  This is so exciting, I was so worried about her when she vanished like that, honestly I figured they chased her off but was afraid they may have hurt her inadvertently especially after she took the baby.  I'm so glad she has not only survived but is thriving - obviously she's able to hunt well since she's made it this far!

Oh thanks carly, good to hear about Polly "Pockets" as I called her. I hope she succeeds.

[The most troubling thing is her partner might be her brother Algo.]

My french is rusty but here is the gist of it:

Eve starts off saying 'we all remember Polly, the juvie who wouldn't leave the nest last year and who continuously interfered with her parents during incubation last year, she also to our great distress stole one of the babies.  And here she is one year later, at 2 years of age attempting to nest herself for the first time at a newly discovered nest.  Thank you to Sylvain Cusson who discovered and read our Polly's bands.

The most troubling thing is her partner might be her brother Algo.  

Oh my!! OK so she's nesting but no hatches as of yet?

I can't find the thread but didn't Annette (?) Post about babies hatching in Brussels? Is this the same nest site?

Polly is alive and nesting!!!

Great news, thanks. Can someone translate some of the blog? I'm curious about details! Babel isn't the best translator. Is that her on the video? I always liked Polly even though she was a bit jealous!

Beautiful Lou...thanks. Who needs a whole description? Not you!

isn't that fun? I just saw.
I hope #4's eyes are OK

I hope so too dale and yay for #5!!

[I'm ELATED, STOKED, THRILLED!! Thank you so much CPF, MNR, MARK, BRUCE, BIGFRANK and anyone else. This is the best news! Quest may be a bit leary of what's happening right now but she'll get the hang of things soon enough. I'm so happy for her now that she has her own nest box.]
