NE / Omaha - Woodmen Tower - 2009-21
Linder:
Missed checking on this nest and when I finally did, 1st egg laid Apr 6.
Report from the website:
In 2010 we saw the first of five eggs appear on April 1. Eggs two and three were here by April 6, the fourth egg was here on April 7, and by April 13 we had five eggs. Only four of the five eggs hatched last year.
Last year 5 days between egg 1 and eggs 2 and 3, so this weekend we should a couple of new eggs. :)
Linder:
Still no eggs at this site but they seem to be making up their minds on where they will nest.
Linder:
According to the site these two don't migrate and have been at and around the nest boxes all winter. From info I could find, Zeus is banded and Hera isn't. Quite an interesting Family Tree posted on the site and I didn't realize that Zeus has been at this site since 1996.
The Peregrine Chick:
Do we know for sure it's Hera and Zeus back again this year? ???
Linder:
2011 NESTING SEASON
It has been reported:
Both falcons have started to hang around the nest more as they begin their annual shell game of picking a nest to lay their clutch of eggs. The Woodmen Tower has nest boxes on both the North and East sides of the 28th floor. In 2009, the peregrines used the East nest. Last year, they selected the North nest at the last minute. So, history says they should be back in the East nest for 2011.
