Alison:
That's funny, Carly! She has seemed very restless for the last hour or so - perhaps there is a pip in a second egg?

So far, still one chick. Hope you don't mind more pics of the little one:

 

 

carly:
Oh my god, this falcon has gone crazy...lol!  She's channelling Trey!!  She is going nuts right now moving pebbles and digging under them.  A few minutes ago she was pulling at the corners of the box at something, she got so carried away she pulled herself right off the eggs and the chick to get into those corners!  It's hilarious and scary in a strange kind of way.  Peregrine post partum!!

 

Alison:
I am so happy to see a hatch here, after everything these falcons have been through! It is several days past what should have been the hatch date, but it was hard to tell when hard incubation began at this nest, since the birds had so many problems keeping the eggs under them.  I can't get the live stream at the moment, but here is a glimpse of the baby, and of Dad coming in to take a look.

Many thanks again to TPC for contacting the people in Maine about this nest.

 

carly:
I am thrilled for them.  It was so cute to hear them chupping to each other excitedly this morning..hehe!  ;D

carly:
Another feeding at 8:58 for our lone chick  ;)
