I was just wondering the same thing...she was perched over the scrape for a while earlier and now she's lying down...
Quest may have just slipped her first egg on April Fools day!
April 01, 2013 - Toronto - Don Mills
CPF Postmaster Reports:
April 1st - 2013
While we have not been able to confirm the presence of her first egg, it appears that Quest is doing something more than just keeping the gravel warm!
Given the blustery cold winds and wind chills, all of the resident female adults on the nest ledges and covering their egg(s).
The high winds and the various snow streamers coming from the north and north west from the Georgian Bay are actually hammering communities to the north of us with accumulations of snow and bitter cold wind. The wind chill factors associated with the high winds has all of the resident adult females laying down tight to their nest bowls and not giving us an opportunity to view their secrets.
The latest photo of Quest see her lying down tight to her nest bowl within her nest box, and we don’t blame her! Its COLD!!! What on earth has happened to the great spring weather and temps that we just had over the previous two days?? This week we are to expect unseasonably cold temperatures and we may even get some minor snow accumulation!
Stay tuned……..
