The Peregrine Chick:
These two look to be doing very well, eggs and nestbox look great, they are sharing incubation though Faith is definitely the primary incubator she doesn't seem to have any problem passing the torch. And they are pretty consistent and have been from early on - he does more in the morning, she does most the rest of the day and overnight. Smooth transfers, very fast unless it is more than a little warm or the sun is shining on them. I only know there has been a transfer when I'm checking the recording when the size of the bird changes (dramatically) from one tick to another (each tick is a minute long). Think start of hatching is still 2-4 days away but every pair is different and Faith is larger and these eggs have been very tightly covered since the start - if either of those has any bearing, it could change the timeline. Can't say if I see a pip or anything on the eggs, mostly just don't get to see them for long. Will be keeping an eye on them however over the weekend just in case they want into the world sooner than we anticipate.
The Peregrine Chick:
Faith this morning - just a few minutes before Ty came in to replace her.
Wet mama, dry eggs.
