Radisson - 2013 / Ivy & Princess
The Peregrine Chick:
Princess just got tossed tail over head and she took the eggs and dead chick with her. She has gathered up the eggs but not the chick. The white "lumps" against the drain cover are the chick and the remains of the eggshell.
ballywing:
Wind must have changed, the cam is bouncing again - It looks like poor Chick#1 has been nudged aside - over by the drain cover. Or is that something else, as it looks like 2 of them over there - 2 white lumps of something? One of them is behind Princess' tail feathers, can't see it well. :-\
The Peregrine Chick:
Had a look at the camera and thought that doesn't look like Ivy and it wasn't ... checked the recorder and Princess hopped back on the eggs and the chick at 1845h. She looked all dry and ready to get back to business, Ivy made sure she was close by before he relinquished his place.
bcbird:
I hope Princess takes a long break to feed and replenish her stores of energy.
Ivy likely had a good food cache prepared.
moka:
How terrible. :'(
Yet, I suppose this makes the fact that they do succeed, more often than not, one of nature's miracles.
I include Princess' tenacity and devotion as part of that miracle.
Good luck Princess and Ivy with the rest of your eggs.
