Thank you, Kinderchick! I wish I had a pic of the newly hatched chick, but apparently the cams were down. Many congratulations to Kinney and Kathy Q on their new chick.

Kinderchick:
I just love your photos of Kinney, Alison, especially the middle photo! :D

carly:
First hatch here!   :-* ;D

Alison:
Kinney is a remarkable tiercel. From Laura James-Reim's blog:

So what is Kinney's status now? As to eggs that is. Many of you long time falcon followers probably have already jumped all over that answer! I tout it year after year after year. But it is an amazing record and he is the most prolific tracked tiercel in the Midwest with data recorded by the Midwest Peregrine Society. I believe that database covers at least 13 states and some parts of Canada.

So, for all you newbies or falconheads whose memory isn't what it used to be, the total number of eggs produced by Kinney (with two mates) is 58! In order for him to hold onto that 58 number and for it to be entered in the database, all of those eggs will have to hatch and the chicks survive until fledging. Regardless, he still holds the record and the closest male in total numbers is deceased.

Meantime, incubation continues:

 

 

Alison:
Kinney and Kathy Q now have four eggs, laid on March 13, March 15, March 18 and March 20. The falcons were not willing to provide a good look at the eggs today:
