Hmmm! I Went to the live cams. On one, the egg stands alone. In the other, she? is just outside preening. I checked their blog and it only read the male? is 30/Z.

[The Peregrine Chick]

It is confirmed that the resident female is Durand. The male, new to this nest has a band ID as (30/Z). Their first egg was laid yesterday, March 24th. A video was shared by a viewer from the Netherlands. The egg was laid about 4 min. 55 sec. into the video.

Comment and a question ...
Comment - Durand does not look impressed with that egg after all that effort, she sure is giving it the "hairy eyeball".
Question - GCG have you heard what the male's band colour is?  There is a 30/Z in the records but it was put on an Ohio female in 2014.  It will be great to find out more ...
