A lot of you have been asking about the fourth egg. There is now no chance it will hatch so we have three this year. Often the eggs gets pushed to one side and is cracked, damaged and the shell gets eaten, I am not sure why this has not happened but this egg will not hatch now. Under all the circumstances of the year they have done very well to have the three safe and sound. Lets look forward to them all fledging.

It’s pretty windy up here!!
Even though their nest is down in one of the turrets the wind is whipping around whoever is sitting on the chicks to keep them warm.

Still hopeful?
Mum and Dad are obviously still hoping the 4th egg will hatch. It is now 37 days since the last egg was laid and their normal incubation period is 28 – 33 so it looks like she is wishful thinking. Not bad though for an old girl!
