Looks like the 2nd egg was empty. She probably had a heck of a time passing it. I had a cockatiel that did this. Thankfully it's out now. Let's hope the next egg is OK. She will be 10 years old soon.  I had a Parrot that had this problem also! What a huge egg that she could not pass, so off to Vet! Dangerous also! |

Looks like Rhea Mae on the egg now. Bad one is out in front of her.

This whole thing is bizarre. Digging a scrape next to the nest box doesn't seem normal. Dropping eggs from the edge of a box isn't normal. Did she ingest something bad? Has she got something bacterial, fungal or viral? Is Ivy or another female around, challenging for a box and they got into a battle and she's injured? 10 yrs old is not that old so I wonder what's really going on. I feel so bad for her and Tiago.  |

Someone is back, down at the far end of the ledge.

The sad thing is, there is nothing we can do if something is going on. All we can do is watch. |

At least the egg is in the sun, so it and its parent can be relatively warm.

Posted on CPF:
!!! One egg broken!
March 29, 2016 - Toronto - Sheraton Centre
CPF Postmaster Reports:
March 29 - 2016
It would appear that one of two recently laid eggs has been broken :-(
Sadly, this is one of the typical results of an urban nest ledge,, where there is little to no nesting sub-straight base for the peregrines to dig out a proper nest bowl to contain and coddle the eggs in safety so they can be incubated properly. (Thus the need for a nest tray and proper nesting sub-straight)! But,,
For what ever reason, the resident female decided to lay her eggs outside of the nest tray this season, and as we have seen many times over the past 20 years where the peregrines have not used the nest tray, the results are all too familiar.
Once again, there seems to be lots of activity on and off of the Toronto Sheraton nest ledge, but the adults are not giving us any decent views of their leg bands and positive identification has yet to be confirmed.
