Wanderfalken in Anglesea am Turm der Firma Alcoa

Hoffentlich klappt es endlich mal wieder mit dem Nachwuchs.
Von mir aus auch im Kohlebunker. Wenn nur mal wieder kleine Fälkchen schlüpfen würden.

We have an egg! Actually, we have two!! The eggs are rarely left uncovered during incubation but Ava kindly gave us a sneak peek while she stretched her legs (and wings).

A quick check through the peep hole and the heart sank as there was no sight of Ava on the ledge. Thought Ava would be sitting below proud as punch in her newly formed scrape. However down went the extension pole and the camera monitor reveals ... Ava sitting midway along the beam. Phew! The camera vision isn't great so it's difficult to distinguish a scrape, but hopefully Ava has moved the substrate around to give her eggs a buffer against the metal beam. Off momentarily to receive a breakfast delivery from Havoc, Ava reveals two eggs.

Ava & Havoc haben ein Junges

The rain has been bucketing down and Ava is snuggled in tight against the vertical of the bunker ledge. Is that a piece of egg shell I spy? Back for a second look and Ava seems to be sitting amongst the leftovers of lunch? The rain has eased ... Ava moves along the ledge to prepare an afternoon snack .... who is this that appears from behind the vertical?

Eine sehr traurige Nachricht. Offensichtlich hat das Wanderfalkenküken nicht überlebt und wurde aus dem Nest entfernt...Aus dem zweiten Ei ist kein Küken geschlüpft, das Ei ist ebenfalls verschwunden.

Unfortunately, it appears that the season is over for Havoc and Ava.

During last week's monitoring Ava was sitting tight on her second egg, although it was unlikely to be successful. The eggs will hatch in the same order they are laid, but with only two eggs, it should only be matter of days after the first egg hatches before we would expect the second chick to emerge. Finally Ava gave us a glimpse, but then it was of a listless chick. http://www.alcoa.com/australia/en/image ... 01_sml.jpg It didn't look promising.



This week Ava is sitting on the bunker ledge, http://www.alcoa.com/australia/en/image ... 07_sml.jpg



preening in the warmth of the afternoon sun and checking out the adjacent ledge (and checking out me!). http://www.alcoa.com/australia/en/image ... 12_sml.jpg



There was no sign of the chick or the second egg. Today the bunker ledge is empty.

Our two chicks are growing up fast and beginning to move around the bunker ledge. More often than not, they are no longer visible from the peep hole on the 6th floor above. However, today these cuties were clearly visible as they peeked over the bunker edge from the 4th floor below

At this age the solid white coat of down the chicks have been sporting since hatching has clearly been replaced with juvenile plumage. They are growing up so fast!

One of our chicks has taken flight whilst the second sits tentatively on the edge of the bunker. Fledging, leaving the nest, is a part of the life cycle of the juvenile Peregrine falcon and usually occurs around day 40 which is spot on for when our bundles of white fluff were sighted.

Hallo Kolibri,

Dies sind Fischadler in einem Nest am Baden Lake USA, Yadkin Staudamm, North Carolina.

Vielleicht könntest Du den Schnappschuß in das Thema Fischadler 2016 - Großbritannien, USA, Canada etc verschieben. Ich hoffe, daß irgenwann einmal wieder der Wanderfalken Webcam-Stream aus Australien hier fortgeführt werden kann...

Ferenz, entschuldige bitte meinen Irrtum. Habe nur das Wort "Alcoa" gesehen und nicht richtig den Adler betrachtet.
