Aren't Quest and Skye are on a low ledge, too?  Hopefully the 'formerly' Gulf Tower birds will have good watchers to assist if needed.  Glad the new site was located.

We have three hatched as of today!  The third was actually working out of the egg this morning; it hatched later this afternoon.  And Laddie is feeding Lassie, I guess so she doesn't have to move off the little ones yet.  

It's hard to watch, but I'm still pulling for the little one. 

Dorothy and E2 just fed the chick, on it's back.  Dorothy is now trying to flip it over, like she did yesterday.  The chick seems to be breathing okay and just wants to sleep (food coma).

I'm a bit out of the loop on this how this whole thing came about as I've not been watching regularly but every time I do the chick looks fine to me.  It's been fed, brooded - extensively so by an over protective mom, and is growing. 

Solo chicks as we know are always tough to watch, they don't have a sibling to lean on so they fall over alot especially when they're being stuffed silly and they've got those big feet to contend with.  Having watced Dorothy in years past, she's never been the type to use up energy caring for a chick that isn't well so I'm going to follow her cues and figure since she is caring for it with all her might - in her falcon mind, this chick is viable. 

This above post by Kate was after all the concerns the day s(he) was on his back so long.  People started saying it was frail looking, walked on its elbows, can't sit up straight, etc.  I think it looks fine to me but Kate hasn't been optimistic since it was hatched plus she never thought Dorothy would lay eggs or hatch any..it was just a follow up to posted concerns.

A second one went over the box rear edge after getting fed, and seems to be trapped between the box and the window.  It's probably okay, but it is concerning to see.  The first escapee is sitting to the right of the box, back up near the bldg.  That's what I see on the archive for 7-8 pm.  I'm hoping the adults are near and keeping an eye on them. 

The first of the four is out of the box, getting fed on the ledge next to the box.  Sure hope they band them soon, or they won't be able to catch 'em! 

We have the first hatch today

Well pooh!  I never saw the half egg shell all day yesterday/last night.

Looks like Dorothy and E2 have a 2nd hatch 

Wow!  Sounds like all five may hatch.  Allan and Liadan are gonna be busy!

Thanks to Allan's guidance, Liadan seems to be getting the idea of proper mothering.  They now have two hatched and a third egg with pip.  Fingers crossed 

First hatch at Toledo, and Liadan's obvious inexperience is really scary to watch!

DotCa was EARLY today with breakfast!

Looks like all four have hatched and were being fed this morning about 8:00 a.m. 

Thanks Kris.  It did look like maybe 2 fluff balls this morning, but mom just doesn't give many views to the cam LOL!
