Yes I remember that back in 2013.  I recall it crawled away from her and she just left it there and didn't even try to get it back under her so she knew it wasn't well.  This little one - so far - looks and sounds good and she's keeping it tucked close to her.  Talons crossed, it stays healthy.

Dorothy's stats by Kate St. John

Various numbers were listed in the news articles. Here are Dorothy’s statistics:  At age 16 she has laid more than 55 eggs of which 44 have hatched and 42 have fledged (flown from the nest).  We don’t know the exact count of her eggs because her first nest was hidden.  This chick will be counted as her 43rd fledgling when it flies.

Amazing!  There are only a handful of falcons that do this well.  Go Dorothy!   clap

Read on FB that it was a non-viable chick that Dorothy has removed from the nest..saw pic of her removing it on FB.   Sad  The egg has been cracked a couple days, from what I've seen.

It just happened early this afternoon, Deb.  They say it looked like Dorothy broke the shell..they're going to check the archives.
