De Mortel : 3 eyases or 4?



In De mortel S2 and Pa are taking real good care of their precious kids. There are 3 now, that's for sure, or are there 4? In some pics it looks as if there are indeed. We just have to wait until it is for sure we can see 4 of them.
Unfortunately the cams where offline for the biggest part of the day. There was a minor technical problem which we solved together with our sponsor INTERNL.NET. Thank you so much INTERNL.NET. Now we can relax and enjoy the feed from de Toren in De Mortel.
As a write this it is midnight in the Netherlands. I watch S2 in the scrape with her sweeties warm tucked away under her. She is looking down and checking if everything is fine with them.
Beautiful, magical, phenomenal S2, goodnight to you and your eyases dear falconlady

James River Bridge: 15 days old



Here are our sweeties. They are growing into real big eyases. They have a full crop and a fat belly and are being stuffed with fresh meat by their parents. Sir James is with them for long periods. Much more than their mother Elizabeth. That might be due to his old age. For a peregrine he is very old indeed. But still growing strong. Look at these 3 fine kids he produced together with beautiful Elizabeth. A fine couple they are!

Brighton: Sussex Heigths





April 26 is the estimated hatchdate. So we are very curious and anxious. Dear eyases we will welcome you into our world. Have a save journey out of the egg.

Cobb Island: 3 eyases



Oberhausen: 26 days old



Rome: 15 days old




Heidelberg: 10 days old



The Heidelberg eyases are 10 days old now. They seem small, but that's mostly due to the way the cam is placed.
