No hatch in Eemsmond?

[Annette]

I believe the eggs not hatching again. 

[Donna]

I had a feeling Annette...they have had bad luck the past couple years. One of them has to be sterile, I guess. So sad.

[Donna]

I guess anything can happen now....Nijmegen has no hatch yet, so maybe still time. HOPING

[Annette]

I fear the male is steril.

I fear the male is steril.

I was told that as well.  The female had many broods prior to this new male, he's been there 3 years now I think and no hatches since then.  It's heartbreaking, last year she sat on those eggs for almost 50 days...I wish they had given them the other 3 little ones that perished at the other site last week to foster.  But let's not go there.

Oh boy, your not kidding....this is so sad to watch her.

[Donna]

She sits and sits just like last year.

BUT.....Nijmegen has 2 hatches. 

[Donna]

She waits and waits. Poor girl. 

[Annette]

She waits and waits. Poor girl. 

I am also very sad about it. 

[Donna]

Eemsmond falcon still lays on eggs. What's it been like 60 or more days? Poor baby.

[carla]

I feel sorry for that couple.

Greetings Carla

[Donna]

and she sits....and sits....and sits.....and nothing will ever happen.

shame there isn't a baby needing a mom to give her.
