Hatching approaches?

Hi All,
I wanted to update everyone quickly with a reminder that we expect the first falcon egg to hatch toward the end of this week. Last year the firs egg was laid on March 18th and the first egg hatched on April 23rd...that is our best estimate of a hatch date.

The birds have been so diligent I expect that we can anticipate a successful hatch. Please keep an eye on these birds and remind your friends that hatching is fast approaching.

All the Best,

  10. Falcon chicks were banded today, must have been exciting, as the chicks and mom or dad are staying very close to the chicks..and the web cam looking in from the front has been moved off center of the nest box

  14. I hope you update some time soon, as I'm enjoying watching the 2012 chicks from over here in South Korea. As I'm a Maine native, I enjoy "visiting."
