Happy Easter to you all. We have been watching carefully on the Cameras and at the Cathedral to monitor progress this year . Normally at Chichester there are four eggs .For what ever reason (and we don’t know the answer ) this year we have three. Both birds are sitting well taking turns ,eggs will hatch end of April , beginning of May. ‘Eggcellent News’…..Ouch…..!!! Dad makes a dramatic exit…!!
So at 7.40 today saw the third egg for the first time. I will go back through the footage to try to get a time it was laid and let you all know … what great news…!!!
