That is one depressed looking bird  :-\
I can just hear her ... hatch darn it, my tailfeathers are numb and your father is annoying me with his incessant take out deliveries of Peregrine-KD ...

Seems like she's been incubating those eggs for EVER!! - hatching has gotta be any time now!  :)

Sorry for the false alarm. Joanne  from BCATW  and I both thought something was happening.
I still think she is hearing peeps but still inside, I guess. Lots of moving around on her part though

and false alarm as I  just saw 4 eggs

boy. I was sure but the light is bad when she was on them
she sure is trying and it is hard to tell if there are pips or not.

Excellent, I've had her up all morning but it's been so busy here at work.  I've noticed she's up and down alot and thought...hmmm wonder if something is going on under there!  Go Radisson!

I think she didn't want any hatches until you came home Bev, you've spoiled her and now she likes to have you around to help out  :P

I believe we have a first hatch or one in progress
One site reported they thought they saw it at 8:26 and it could very well have been the start . I have been watchng since 7:00 and she is not showing much and the glare is bad but I have some pictures of what I think was the start. 
does not matter exact time but it is happening and radisson called out (exactly as last year)
Will post as I see.

Poor Radisson - she's going to get numb bum at this rate!  :P
LOL ballywing. And she is still hiding those eggs this morning.  No signs of shell or anything else going on.  It seems like she has been on those eggs forever.

As the light fades in her box, she is still sitting.  All to be seen is her white chest.

I missed your post MsD, but I just saw the same thing likve (finally!).  I don't see any pips.  But she does seem to be trying to get things moving... 36 hours, max.  Also putting money on 18 hrs!
