Elaine L:
Thanks for keeping us informed about this site, Kinderchick. I hope we will see eggs here soon.
Kinderchick:
A falcon keeps pacing in and out of a scrape in the nestbox, back and forth from scrape to nest ledge, occasionally chirping. Not sure what this means. Does this mean she's getting ready to lay an egg? ??? When she's standing in the scrape she keeps looking down between her legs. Don't know what peregrine behaviour is like, just before an egg is laid. Never seen a live egg laying.
Kinderchick:
Falcon in the nestbox working on an enormous scrape right now. :) Just moved to the ledge and is now calling out.
Kinderchick:
Female has been ID'd as "Callie", the female from last year. She can be seen often in the nestbox making a scrape, while the male has been providing her with food. Attempts are being made to ID the male. They are not certain yet if it is "Gary", the male from last year.
Kinderchick:
Looks like there's a scrape in the middle of the nestbox today! :D
