McKenzie Seeds - 2010 / Brooklyn & Hurricane
Rose:
TPC do you suppose two of the 4 eggs seen earlier were not hurricanes? I'm almost positive the other female had layed 2eggs before the nest got taken over by Brooklyn & Hurricane,would Hurricane still have incubated them as hers or would she have turfed them, do Perigrines do those kinds of things? ???
RCF:
That's very sad to hear. :'( :'( Hopefully the two eggs that are left will hatch and the chicks will fledge successfully.
carly:
Sorry to hear that TPC, seems to be happening or happened to a number of the nest sites we've watched this spring. Lot of nests with only two and eggs either unhatched or pushed out. Hopefully the last two are okay and will hatch with no problems. Given the terrible weather, we should be thankful they are all safe and still around to even tend to eggs :-\
The Peregrine Chick:
Heard from Dan and Brooklyn and Hurricane are still incubating and expected hatch date is this week. There are however, two eggs in the box now, not four. We have no idea what could have happened but the site is not accessible to anything but the peregrines so chances are, the eggs weren't viable and the adults disposed of them. Princess and Trey used to do that regularly, so the ability to spot non-viable eggs could be Hurricane's inheritance from her parents.
Jo:
Wow - that was some storm! :o Glad the birdies are safe and sound.
So nice to hear that Hurricane was enjoying some 'me time' in the sun today. :)
