Hurray !!! chick number three just hatched !!!

Thanks for this info - much appreciated.
Missed catching the morning feed but there was a feed at 11 AM. RD cam viewers witnessed a magpie poking its head into the nestbox yesterday afternoon. Luckily the parent was on the chicks.

I didn't know where else to go to ask this. Not sure if questions regarding specific falcons are welcomed. I would like to know as much as possible about the Red Deer Telus falcon pair. Age, breeding history and are they banded ? ( have looked but can't find this info ). Was told this latter ( banding) was common knowledge.
A local on the cam chat said they've seen nesting for 14 years which contradicts info i was given ( 1999 was the date i was told ). Why is the info so sketchy and hard to find ?
peaches123:
First feeding. Dad came into box and did the feed. Wondering if he's more experienced. Both chicks ate. Egg #3 is very cracked now.

Will have to try to find info on this adult pair ( ages especially ) as one adult ( can't tell male/female) just brought in food and moved it around then sat on it along with the chicks !! Can anyone shed light on what's happening here ? Chicks moving around and peeping so good sign.
Not sure if chicks had an earlier feed. Pip hole seen in third egg :)
