Indy's Falcon Cam - Come Watch Our Falcons With Us!
Marina:
Awww, how sweet! It's like Pale Male the red-tailed hawk, who lives overlooking Central Park in NYC. Can't wait to see the babies either. :)
David In Indy:
I'm glad you like the Falcon Cam, Marina!
She should be laying her eggs anytime. I just checked the second camera and she's in the back of her nesting box, away from the ledge.
(Here's a picture from the second camera.)
She seems to spend much of the daylight hours at the ledge, the evening hours towards the back of the nesting area, and late night back at the ledge. So I expect to see her back out at the ledge in a few hours. There is also a male falcon named Kinney. The falcon we see most of the time is KathyQ.
David In Indy:
Oh! I just read the new entry in the falcon blog! She's laid an egg! She laid an egg at 5:15 this afternoon!
YAY!!
They are joking around about the fact that she always seems to lay eggs on Saturdays. :D
David In Indy:
Apparently Kinney spends much of his time on the ledge, so when we are seeing pictures of a falcon on the ledge, it could be Kinney. Now that KathyQ has laid an egg, she will be spending most of her time sitting on the nest. So from this point on if we see a falcon on the ledge it will almost definately be Kinney.
He's not there right now. He must be out hunting at the moment. :D
David In Indy:
Here's a youtube video of KathyQ and Kinney taken on 3/06/10. They said the video is rated "N" for Nature. I think it shows the two falcons mating (based on the comments I read) but I'm not sure. :)
