The Peregrine Chick:
From our friends hosting two of Alley's kids ...
It's the time of year. Our two peregrine falcon chicks need to be named. Details of the naming contest can be found on the falcon web page = http://www.westarenergy.com/wcm.nsf/content/falcons
We plan to band the chicks on 5-30 at 1 p.m.. The web cams will be temporarily unavailable during the procedure.
:)
The Peregrine Chick:
Alley's kids (so Princess' & Trey's grandkids) have eggs
Nemaha and Boreas are up to four eggs now.
The first egg arrived 3/29 at 6:30 AM.
Second egg arrived 3/31 early morning.
Third egg arrived 4/3 at 9:15 AM.
Fourth egg arrived 4/6 between 4:00 AM - 8:00 AM.
The incubation normally lasts about 30 days, so we'll start looking for the first hatching towards the end of April.
Thank you to our dedicated viewers for letting us know when eggs were laid.

The Peregrine Chick:
Message from our folks at Westar ...
We have confirmed that our falcon couple is again Nemaha and Boreas, the same pair as last year.The first egg arrived this morning at around 6:30 AM. As Nemaha hopefully lays more eggs, the falcons should be spending more time in the nest box.
Happy viewing!
