Enraptured:
I just sent Tracy the pic I took. She's still not online, but hopefully once she is, she'll be able to offer some reassurance from her experience and knowledge!  So hard to watch and to know that this mum is going to have to get through the night like this. I'm hoping that the dad will bring in some food really soon, and hopefully the mum can attempt to get her own and see if the thing will budge if the eats. I am worried, too, like you that she won't be able to eat properly.

deedream:
yes there is two parents.  but she has been doing all the feeding.every 2 hours or so

Liz:
I'm concerned it will stop her from feeding them too.  Is there a dad around?  I haven't actually noticed if there are two different adults there.

Enraptured:
I just took a pic as well and will figure out how to send it to Tracy so once she's online she can see a little bit of it.  This poor falcon, she's really tossing her head a lot right now...my picture is getting so bad though that I can't tell if she's just preening.  I agree and also know, from my earlier look an hour ago when the view was really clear, that the thing is well and truly stuck onto her beak.   :'(

I agree, we can't do anything from here and our worries won't help.  We'll have to keep our fingers crossed it all works out well, without harm or too much distress to the mum or her chicks...

Thanks for looking with me! It's helped to share my concerns. :)

Enraptured:
Before I first posted, I'm pretty sure I did see her open her beak, but no sound came out and she only did it once, so I'm not 100% sure she did, but I was watching specifically for that and at the time was a little relieved.  The picture quality is getting really poor now, so if and when Tracy does take a look, she'll have hard time seeing anything. 

I wonder if they actually have anyone monitoring the cam, especially seeing as these two aren't banded...
