This is very egg-citing news! :D And how appropriate for them to be nesting on a centre for animal health! 8) ;)
carly:
Thank you for looking out for this pair TPC and for putting in a nest to help them out! Let's hope it takes :-*
Cooper:
Okey-dokey, watching and waiting and playing by the rules here!
The Peregrine Chick:
NOTE:
Anyone going by the Centre, please note that this is a secure federal facility.
There is no public access to the grounds and no photos of the buildings are allowed.
The Centre is very enthusiastic that the peregrines might be nesting on their roof this year. But please be aware that the grounds are private property and security, regardless of what you are doing or why you are there, is going to do their job.
So that you can enjoy your visit with the peregrines, please play by the rules.
Thanks!
TPC

Looks like Cowboy and Kate will be nesting at the Canadian Science Centre for Human and Animal Health this year. They laid one egg on a low roof which is not visible to the Radisson. We also found evidence that there had been another egg there (an eggshell) but no indication what might have happened. The rocks on the roof are standard roof rocks which mean they are too big for a proper scrape so we put a nest tray (ie: tuppernest) at the nestsite made a scrape in proper size gravel and moved the egg. A check of the site today and it looks as though they have been in the box but incubation hasn't begun so we will just have to see what happens.
It could be that their egg is not viable and they won't lay anymore. It could be that this is egg two and three and perhaps four are on their way over the next few days. We will check again next week to see what happens. This is a new pair so we don't know what is usual for them so all we can do is wait (impatiently) and watch.
