Radisson - 2014 / Smiley & Princess
dupre501:
1016h - Feeding time!
Still only one chick and three eggs.
The Peregrine Chick:
June 5
As of 0935h - still 1 chick, 3 eggs
After the rain stopped, Smiley started making pretty regular visits to the nestbox, mostly with food I think through the night = 0148h, 0319h (mealtime I think), 0435h (refused), 0442h (mealtime), 0501h (wo food), 0616h (wo food), 0619h, 0626h (failed handover? or refusal?), 0632h (mealtime), 0850h (meal for Princess, chick napped).
If he gets his pattern regular in some fashion and he manages to figure out what Princess wants for the kids in terms of size & packaging, then Smiley could do very well. I was having a look back through some of my notes and he seems to be very interested in what Princess is doing with squishy-fluffy which Ivy was as well, but Smiley seems much more interested or attentive. This an anthropomorphic description but similar behaviour in Ivy preceded his development into a phenomenal provider for his family, so we'll have to see if the same holds true for Smiley.
