Full Clutch

this year…….!!!

Sharing duties what a day….wonderful watching from the ground there was a lot going on today….as well as all the good stuff there was an intruder which was eventually moved on by Mum…..let’s hope the third egg hatches we have time yet….I would hope in the next 48 hours or so….!!

So on review first chick at just before 2.30 am and second chick at just after 5am this film shows time line and first view of chicks ,Mums toilet break giving good views of the chicks …..First feed …..First time Dad looks after the Chicks this normally does not happen quite so quickly he normally has to earn the right so she must really trust him….they are a great pair….well done so exciting……Yeeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhhhh…….!!!

 

 

 

So a lots happened by 5.45 am there were two chicks absolutely great news….!!!

Just after 5am and a lot has happened by 7.30am more to follow…..!!!

Another classic exit by the boy…..the time is drawing close Mum is sitting high on the eggs and very fidgety so not long to go now ….it’s time to keep watching….Next Saturday the 6th May we are doing a one off open day on the Kings coronation on the Cathedral lawns from 10–4…..The rest of the open days will run from the 9th June until the 10th July…..our new Maverick Pin badge will be available for a small donation to the project….to ensure its future…..keep watching chicks very soon now….!!

This afternoon Dad makes his entrance in a non conventional way to the nest turret…..!!

Beautiful fly by from Mum today we also had visits from the Ravens and Buzzards….all was sorted very efficiently…..!!…..Eggs will start to Hatch at the beginning of May if I were a betting man it would be on the 3rd for the first egg to hatch……time will tell…!!

Mum came down low yesterday and gave us a rare treat sitting on the cross on the East side while Dad looked after the eggs…..!!

Great views on Camera two yesterday evening of Dad with the light changing as the sun went down on the city…..watch till the end for the full Peter Pan experience complete with Tinker Bell sprinkles ….caused as the light faded on the city…..a special moment…..!!!
