NEWS Update 2nd September
Congratulations to Diamond on production of her first egg at 1040 on 31st August and second at 2255 h today. PLEASE DO NOT WORRY IF THE EGG IS NOT YET BEING INCUBATED. Diamond wants her chicks to hatch close together so there is less size difference and better food sharing. So she may not start her incubation proper until the third egg arrives.

2nd egg

Nice time together, Xavier stays with Diamond for a long time.

Finally Daddy got his chance to incubate his eggies. :D

Xavier's shift is already over, Diamond is back. But better than nothing, he really loves his time on the eggs.

Back on the tower. I don't speak peregrine, but I suspect she's saying 'stop following me about!'

Solo Thank you for share these catches.

seira thanks for the video links.
Xavier claims his right better now, I heard him in the early morning sometimes crave for his part to incubate.
I like his father skills.

Good day to all and to the moderatoren. :hi:

I want an own topic for the peregrine falcon Orange NSW Australia, because from this family is posted here the most.
I don't like that confusion here no more.
