Baffled:
Just had a feeding at 7:35am EDT.
I could see 3 chicks clearly and lots of egg shell, so I'm not yet sure if that last egg was a dud and is now broken or if there was a small chick hiding behind the chickpile. Must keep watching!
After feeding, Father came into the nest to take his turn, but Mother only gave him a second or two before she arrived back on the ledge and glared at him, so he hopped off and she's now settling over the chicks. Poor Father didn't get his turn with them!

2008 one egg didn't hatch 2009 Bella only female died
Donna:
yup...... I was going to say something about that before, but thought maybe I was wrong. Glad you said it, one year , one egg didn't hatch and the other one died,,,,,, was it same year or different years ?
The Peregrine Chick:
I seem to recall last year or 2008, she had one egg that didn't hatch and she kept it around for quite awhile ... does anyone else remember that?
Kinderchick:

I am reminded of the Shel Silverstein poem "I Won't Hatch"...

LOL! Thanks for that poem, baffled! Yes, I do remember it! ;)
