YAY!!
They are joking around about the fact that she always seems to lay eggs on Saturdays.

How exciting! She's a beauty - a peregrine?

Yes, I think they call them peregrine falcons. I really don't know much about them, except they are fun to watch when it is time for them to lay their eggs! :)

And speaking of eggs, KathyQ just laid her second one! It happened early Tuesday morning. I haven't been keeping up with the falcons today (too much to do) but here's the entry from the falcon blog....

She Snuck One In!
Looks like KathyQ has foiled us again. I saw a pic out on another forum showing a second egg around 5:45 this morning. I didn't see it - did you?
So now we need to see the new wee bundle of joy. Shouldn't be too long as we are going to have a super weather day so the eggs will probably be uncovered much of the day.
On to egg #3!
Congratulations Ks - so glad they are still with us and we can rely on them to provide us with a glimpse into the wonder of nature.

I wonder if she will lay a third one? She is sitting on them right now - at least I think she is - the camera is blurry due to the low light levels inside the nest box. I will check back tomorrow after the sun comes back up! :D

Well, that was short and sweet!

And to the point! :laugh:
I wish I could watch the video! Maybe in a couple of weeks...
Hey! We have egg #3!!! She laid it early this morning! I think she is probably finished now. She normally lays three eggs and then stops. She is on the nest right now but it looks like she is taking a nap. She deserves one!
We should see more of Kinney now, assuming she is all finished. He likes to help incubate the eggs. Well, he has enjoyed sitting on the nest in the past. Let's seee if he does it again! :D
It gets really cute once the babies hatch. That won't be for awhile though.
