Zurich: there might be eggs

The nestsite on top
2007
The 2 photo's on top: the nestsite is on the chimney of the Kehrichtheizkraftwerkes in Zurich. The chimney is 92 meters high. The platform that you see is the frontpart of the nestsite. On the leftside of the platform is the entrance to the real nest. So there might be eggs, which we do not know about....
We do not see the eyases before they can walk a little bit and come outside to the platform, where they will be fed. Last year there was just one chick which came outside for the first time on the 8th of May. It was then about 3 weeks old. So this is exciting. There might be al lot going on, which we don't know anything about.
