Just a quick update here-- Seneca had a second egg as of Tuesday. As of Thursday they have been incubating. There could be another egg in there, but we have only been able to see two because of the concrete mound in the cubby. Hopefully they have more than two eggs-- sometimes a pair in their first year of nesting will have a smaller than average clutch. We'll get some more pics on sometime over the weekend.

New pictures on the CMNH Forum from Chad & Chris of Seneca & Cheyenne

And for those with viewing problems...

"Joyce-- we only know that there are two eggs for sure. We could see them when they were a little more in view to the right of the concrete build-up. They are incubating directly behind the concrete build-up and even at our highest viewing point, the concrete blocks the eggs, even during an exchange when they are off of them.

We've been able to see alot at this nest site, so we're going to post a bunch of pics. In this first sequence, Seneca is coming out of the nest cubby with food that Cheyenne brought in to her... "

Thanks so much Ei for posting these pics and news of Seneca. I'm so happy she is doing so well and bathing to boot. I still can't get on the site, so by you sharing what is there is great. 

Beautiful pictures.

They certainly are B-U-TEE-FULL!!!  Ei has posted a comment to the forum about viewers not being able to get on to the site.  I also followed up with the Admin. Maybe they have experienced this with other members.

Don't you just love the falcon bathing?

Thank you Joyce, I'm not sure why I can't access the site. Never had a problem before.

I still can't get in, either.  I was hoping someone was working on it!

Doing a bit of catch up and Seneca in the water, if nothing else, confirms that she's one of our swimming falcons!     She must be young because  would be the last thing on my mind after all that cold water

YAY!

[Joyce]

Isn't Seneca her mother's daughter!  

Compliments of Chad+Chris - CMNH Forum Thread

"And we'll end with a few shots of Seneca in the sycamore, and then taking off..."

[Donna]

Ahhh, she's gorgeous and a dark head like her poppy! Thanks so much Joyce.

[MAK]

    Oh yeah!            

[valhalla]

She really did grow into a beauty.  Bet she also got her Mama's protective gene, too!
