SwanR Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Took another look this morning, there was one peregrine sitting on the corner in the wind but I couldn't see an egg anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ranworthbreeze Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 The egg is nearer to the microphone now, so a little further right and slightly more towards the middle of the platform. Regards Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Ah yes, I can see it now, a little further out, but they're not sitting on it. There's one falcon there at the moment, perched on the edge, squawking away and flapping its wings about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranworthbreeze Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Hi Jean, By all accounts the Peregrines only sit on the eggs after they have all been laid. Regards Alan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards Alan Ah ok. Good to know. I had thought that it wouldn't survive without being incubated straight away ... never took biology at school!

marshman Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I think its something to do with the fact that clearly they take a bit of effort to lay!! And they want them to hatch within a day or so of each other!! Clever 'ol stuff them birdies! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ranworthbreeze Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I looked at the Norwich webcam this morning and there is now three eggs in view. Regards Alan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranworthbreeze Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I have not seen it but by all accounts there are now four eggs at Norwich & Bath so the peregrines will be sitting now until the chicks hatch. Regards Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwanR Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I haven't kept up with this but on checking this morning it hasn't been good news at Norwich. Three eggs, one chick died and one was accidentally thrown out of the nest. I only had time to read the update quickly but it sounds as if there is only one chick left. https://www.facebook.com/HawkandOwlTrust/posts/796213147203853 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hylander Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I did say I couldnt see the birds but have managed after 4 attempts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VetChugger Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Good to see at least one chick doing well at Norwich. We have three very lively chicks on our Wakefield Cathedral camera. http://wakefieldnaturalists.org/?page_id=2415 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
