I will be checking in on the cams frequently as I do want to see a hatching. I missed them all last year as I did not get this site until they were all hatched and getting some pantaloons! :D
Has anyone seen or heard from last year's chicks? do they come back to where they were hatched?

Welcome back RaptorGal and you are in time this year for all the fun.
As for last year's chicks we very very rarely hear anything about chicks from the previous year - unless they die or are injured. Usually takes a couple of years before they turn up in places where one can read a band number (remember bands are the size of the tip of an adult's little finger) - usually that means a nestsite or a popular roostsite checked by birders who are able to read bands or have big lenses like Wowzer and happen to catch a band on film (so to speak). Maybe next spring we'll hear something, or the spring after ....

Today is May 6th so we are just under 30 days from 3rd egg and the onset of incubation so hatch watch for me starts now ... ;)

Saw a shift change about 5 minutes ago. Princess was speaking and suddenly got up and in came himself. It always amazes me the way he so carefully steps over the eggs and then puffs himself up to cover them all. What a great daddy!
