Radisson - 2016 / Smiley & Princess

11:00 am, feeding time and Parent has butt in the middle of the camera.

I was thinking the exact same thing last night, Bally.  I'm sure all of us were

[ballywing]

I couldn't help but think last night during our big rain storm - that if these birdies had been on that horrid east ledge again this year - things would probably have gone very badly. Thank you Princess for choosing well this time!

Beautiful view of the feeding right now.
Egg is clearly seen in the midst of the three chicks

I heard the sound of feeding (around 6:15 pm), and also saw egg with chicks (again), though not as clear as yesterday. Perhaps egg never left at all!

Another feed right now. There still seems to be an egg under Princess. The one at the bottom right of the screen must be left over from one of the babes we can already see.

Less interruptions on cam today, I find.  

Wish I could stay awhile longer.

[burdi]

Thank you for all the updates/photos, everyone.

A short while ago, there was another feeding. I saw only 3 chicks and no sign of the remaining egg. I'm certain TPC will update our sightings soon.

I did get a glimpse of another feeding!

And I just saw the egg again! 

Is that the egg sitting by itself near Princess & the chicks?? If so, she has gathered them under her now, but left the egg alone. Maybe she gave up on it already?    .....or maybe that is just a piece of shell.

That's what I was wandering about too. It looks to big to be just a piece of shell.  I am hoping it is just a large piece of shell.  I'm worried.

Yes I think it is shell. People were saying that the last egg is still intact, but am thinking if it hasn't hatched by now it probably won't? - TPC would know if that's the case. 

I'm positive the egg was back with chicks just before my post at 21:25 yesterday, so presumed it was temporarily off to the left. Right now, I think that's where it is again.

Yes they do ballywing, and also, Mom is an equal force. She feeds everyone.

Me too Moka - That's why I stopped watching the Eagles cam - those chicks are ruthless with each other and the 'runt' often gets bullied and pushed out of feedings. At least the peregrine chicks have more manners.

I watched the whole feeding. I worried for a while because the two chicks on the left and in the middle were the only ones getting food. Finally, she fed the little one on the right.
Every year I worry when watching a feeding. Needlessly, I know, because Princess feeds all her chicks.
