Did that look like a chick hatching to any of you? :-\ When Princess turned around a few minutes ago, it looked as if one of her eggs was cracking.

I haven't seen Princess doing the egg shuffle like she does when the eggs are hatching, so maybe not, but what do I know?

All tucked back now, but only after an intense hoovering session that again had the eggs visible and a bit scattered.

I wonder how long the egg was sitting out from under her? ???

No hatch yet.  Just moved the egg back under.

Glad she moved it back!!  :)

Hmm... I think you may be right, susha. Does look like a solid egg. Well now she's moved the egg over but it's not under her. Wait a minute. Now it's under her. I wonder what's up with that egg? ???

Yes she did move the egg back underneath her while another one slipped out the other side.  She's having trouble to keep all her eggs in one "basket".

It looks too solid to be a shell - the wind isn't moving it around...and wouldn't it if it was just a shell?  Princess also doesn't seem to be acting as though she has a new chick under her... :-\

Has there been a hatch at the Radisson site?  I see what looks like an egg or a shell on the cam.

Well, that definitely looks like an egg, gran!  A discarded egg or the shell from a hatchling ???

Ivy just accomplished a nice round of egg rolling and shuffling before settling in a 90 degrees change.

It is very windy and he is fairly alert. 

It looks like he is straining down to the tips of his talons to keep velcroed to the eggs.
