We have a 4th!!  Not sure the time...9:15 16??   

  

 

We have 2 new peregrine falcons at the nest box. The female is a banded bird. We have not been able to ID her yet, but we hope to get an identity before too long. The male seems to be unbanded, but we think he is also a new bird. We are pretty sure that there are eggs in the box. The female and male are taking turns incubating. We are hoping to see little white heads pop up around Mother's Day!

Another pair that disappeared!    Maybe off on retirement!

Sad about Fancy and Groucho not being there anymore but glad to see some nesting action here!

Kate has a new blog up today titled 'Dorothy's Daughters' and of course Beauty is right up there so I thought I"d post the link here.  Some nice photos as well of the girls and of course Belle and the fight.

Another Peregrine legend!  Great mom!

Saw on FB-Belle trying to get Allen to switch. She "honks" like Beauty!

Awwwwww! Little things.

Yes, they are...sad that they've lost their mom. 

The good news is that they had someone to rescue them or they would have perished. 

Monique, the rehabber, is wonderful! A true gift for these little ones!

Pretty sure this is #3 emerging.

One thing I love about this cam is the low angle...you can really see how the scrape is formed...pebble picking isn't just boredom...

  That's pretty cool!

Baby #2 just broke out of his shell this minute!  Big pip in another egg and could see baby moving inside!!

                                 

Hatch #1 and #2 so far this morning 

It'll be interesting to see how many more hatch!   

Bev posted some pics of her left eye yesterday on BCAW and it's partially open.  She showed a pic of her injuries to an in-the-know biologist who said he's seen worse and that it should get better over time (barring any bad infection). With Allen hunting for her right now, it's a good thing, allowing her to rest and heal. I can't get the cam either.  

Sad news posted on Phoebe's FB page that new Phoebe has been missing since yesterday AM and the 2 babies have been peeping for food all morning.  The people that have the nest in their yard are going to feed them some sugar water and take them to the rehabber. 

They just tweeted - First Egg for Lady!! 

SWT Lowes Ranger -SWTLowesRanger 1m

We have an osprey egg at last -a great 50th birthday treat for swt!

I've been reading today that she looked eggy!  Good for her! 

The boy sure gets up early now!!

He loves his eggs!

I hope Belle heals well and the remaining eggs are OK...poor thing and I wonder how the intruder is?
