That seems to be normal behavior for DC and B when it's pouring rain l. If you looked through the archives you can see B was actually getting wet in the nest box as was the area around her so she stayed tight on the eggs to keep them dry. Harder to hunt in heavy rain as well.

DC has been on the eggs since 1:30 PM. It's now 3:49 PM. B has had a nice break.

Hi All. Hope everyone is well and enjoying the season. I have been watching a little, when I can, but also looking at archives and backing up YT. Anyway, I don't see that DC has been on the eggs since yesterday (4/19) at 2:46pm. Has anyone seen him come in today? Around 9AM, B got off the eggs for about 4 minutes, then back on. I was able to back up YT and see it was her leaving and returning. Just concerned. Based on archive pics, it appears the weather really picked up right after DC got off the eggs. Not trying to sound an alarm, but hoping maybe someone has seen something, or has access to a longer video. He just came in at 12:46pm... Whew! While it is normal in bad weather I was getting a bit antsy too since I haven't been able to check in all day. Glad he showed up! Phew is right!

 Egg chart #2! DC isn’t giving Beauty many breaks from eggsitting this year. It hasn’t been confirmed he’s the tiercel with the female at Brighton but maybe he’s splitting time between the 2 sites?

9:40 am. B kicked DC off the eggs. He did not want to leave! He was there for about an hour.

One of the most calming, restful sights I can imagine is a peregrine sitting on eggs. I love this time of year!

I so agree Paul. I need to make a few recordings for when I need something soothing to watch.

That is so true Paul. Knowing they're such an explosive creature, seeing them at rest is so soothing.

Today has been interesting. Dot was on the eggs for a bit over an hour this morning. Beauty took over again at 9:37. Then Dana tweeted DC was on OCSR right after that at 9:42. I moved the cams a bit later and he was still there...  Then he came to the deck for a few minutes then left. It appeared to me he took off toward the north, but a quick cam sweep didn't find him.  He came by for a quick lunch break around 2:30 then he was on the eggs from 4:01 to 6:24.  Not much we can do about the whole situation except document what we're seeing.
