I can almost hear our collective gasp when we get to finally see what's happening. Every post seems to accelerate things.
Good luck with the tray installation. Here's hoping for calm winds.
Just a last mention, I don't post as often as the regulars but I do love reading everything and I so appreciate the tone of this forum. This is a collection of people who really love nature and animals.
The Peregrine Chick:
Just a note to those of you working downtown, yes, we are setting up equipment to access the nest ledge for the nest-tray at the momnet but no, we aren't slated to go up today. It takes a lot of time to get all the rigging in place and the winds are a bit high today to actually go up so we do the setup today and wait for a suitable time to go up.
And Princess is keeping an eye on the proceedings but she's still on the eggs and shows no sign of getting off them or being in distress, just paying attention. It also helps that the crew are on the roof (which is a long way away) and she can't see them so she doesn't actually perceive them as a threat, just something going on. She's been through this kind of thing before - last year, the Hotel was doing work on the Radisson sign and there were lots of lines hanging over her and the ledge for more than a month as I recall. Both Trey and Princess are very tolerant (for peregrines) of human activity and they are experienced parents. But I'm still watching over them and the weather is good - warm, sunny and dry - that if she decides she needs to take a closer look for a couple of minutes, the eggs won't take harm from the lack of an incubating adult. And if they are starting to hatch, Mom's not leaving them, so no worries there either.
