[The Peregrine Chick]

Breakfast for five.    It looked like she fed all five and no one got left out.  

Great catch RCF - it's hard to get good captures of chicks this age AND be able to tell where one ends and the next begins!!

The fifth egg hatched last evening sometime around 9 or 10pm.   

5 chicks! Your wish came true, BirdLover. Maybe not such happy news for Bev, Mr. Bev & Gord.

Thanks for that soaring.  I didn't even think of that scenario.

NOooooooo   BirdLover That would be way too many for that nest. That would give Bev nightmares. That would mean that the older ones get feed first and may not have enough food to go around. It happened last year at Bell and Gord came and took it out and hacked it at Pembina.

[BirdLover]

Watching a shuggle going on and spied the fifth egg.  I think it would be eggciting to see a nest with five chicks.

[BirdLover]

Yes, those bars are certainly in the way.  I am just watching the feeding and at times an see four chicks.  The feeder looks overwhelmed. "What do I do with all these screaming Me-Mes." LOL

[RCF]

Just watching a feeding here and counted four wee heads.  Whomever was doing the feeding was standing in the way, of course, so couldn't see if there was a fifth.

Hey Birdlover   I was watching also and there is still the one egg to hatch. Saw a feeding earlier where she wasn't blocking the view but the bars they put in to keep the geese out were kind of blocking the view a bit.

[BirdLover]

WOW!! That's so weird!! I had a dream last week about 5 peregrine chicks in one nest. 

[Kinderchick]

5 eggs! How exciting! Nice to see them on the webcam. Looks like it might have been raining in Edmonton recently.
