MayShowers:
Hopefully it warms up soon for them!
Alison:
Hattie and Orton are now incubating four eggs.
Today, they are incubating in cold, windy conditions, with driving snow. :(
Alison:
The birds in the photos I posted above are indeed Hattie and Orton. Jackie Fallon has confirmed that this is the case.
I am glad that they have been able to hold their nest despite challenges from intruders.
It was cold (30 degrees F) and windy at the nest box this afternoon, making it difficult to see Hattie's bands.
A few minutes ago, Hattie laid her first egg! Congratulations to Hattie and Orton!
The Peregrine Chick:
As a note, this is the hatch site of Triumph who is now the resident male at the Multifoods Tower in Minneapolis and who was very popular in San Antonio, Texas this winter.
Alison:
I have seen several banded birds at the nest this month:
Left, a bird with a black/green band; right, banded black/red, I believe this is Hattie.
Left, yesterday, I believe this is Orton; right, today, I believe this is Hattie.
