2014 NESTING SEASON
Great news, Spark & Durand are back for the 2014 season. They have four eggs this year. The first hatched on April 26/14. As of the morning of April 27/14, there were two chicks. The third chick hatched on Tuesday April 29/14.
The last report on the web blog was:
Both adults are doing an excellent job of caring for the clutch--Spark is providing food while Durand is doing most of the feeding and brooding. There are currently still only 3 chicks hatched. While it is possible the 4th egg may still hatch, as more time passes the chances of having 4 chicks does decrease. But, only time will tell and we're certainly not ready to say another hatch won't happen. Stay tuned...
