U of Alberta - 2009 / Damon & Radisson

[bcbird]

Shift change, with a good view of the eggs.  Did anyone see a pip?
They all looked normal to me.

[bcbird]

Not sure if it is Damon on right now.  The parent is pretty calm, occasionally sleeping, over the past hour or so.

10:40 Edmonotn time
Radisson has been up and on and off egg s for the last 2  hours.
She is back on again and facing 7.
I have to go out now so if she has  hatch I hope someone is watching.
Peter finished conference early today so i do not think he  would appreciate me
sitting in front of the computer.

Trust me and my spelling LOL

Hey Bev, I think that they are waiting for you to come home.    And I think that you just invented a new word for the peregrine dictionary, "chicking in"   (See Sun Life post) How appropriate.

8:20 alberta time

RAdisson just entered the nest box and is looking down at eggs.
Now preening.
I figured today or tomorrow for first hatch so lwt us see how close I am.
She is sort of sittng with eggs showing and now is down on them and ooking towrd cam
I will be watching off and on

I spent quite a bit of time today watching Radisson and Damon.  At some points there was quite a bit of moving around and looking underneath but I barely got a glimpse of the eggs all day.  It is pretty cool in Edmonton too so they are not leaving the eggs for long.

Photo blocked at my work so can't say.  She's restless though, looking under and spinning around alot the past half hour.

[msdolittle]

is that a peep?

Which means even if an egg hatches we will be hard pressed to see the little one.

[carly]

Ack..the high is only going to be 5 degrees in Edmonton today! 

[maggieblue]

I haven't seen the eggs this morning. There must have been a shift change as I think that it was Radisson there at first light and now it looks like it is Damon on duty. He is in a rather strange pose with head down and wings partly extended.

Ooooh - talking to the eggs!!  ....doesn't that mean the kiddies are coming any time now?? 

It means we're in the home stretch!
