Nestbox news:

March 14, 2013 - Another Season Begins
Welcome to the 2013 edition of Nestbox News! Many visitors to NN have been following the Jersey City peregrines for many years - perhaps a decade or more! - and we are glad to have them back. And to new viewers we extend a warm welcome and hope you become a regular visitor to the peregrine webcam pages.

As far as the activity at 101 Hudson Street, we are assuming the 2013 nesting season is already under way. Unfortunately, due to budgetary constraints we have not yet activated the cameras but hope to be streaming video and still images before egg laying begins later this month.

Don't have an exact timeframe for when the cam will be activated, but I did get a report from a worker at adjacent 10 Exchange Place that one day last week, 1 falcon was perched atop the "spike" on the east side of 10 Exchange, with another flying around. So we know a pair is present and accounted for! :eggthumbup:

Yippie!! :dancingegg: The stills are now up on the DEP page, and they've updated Nestbox News (with the now all-important message about fundraising so CWF can support this cam going forward).
http://www.state.nj.us/dep/fgw/peregrinecam/jcp-2013nestnews.htm

April 5, 2013, 9:50 a.m. - A Second Egg!
While updating the webcam pages to reflect the onset of images from the nestbox, staff was able to observe the female atop the single egg first noted yesterday - and when she left, we observed that the second egg had been laid. This indicates the first egg was laid on Wednesday, April 3. The season is truly under way now!

April 4, 2013 - We're live! And there's one egg so far!
Thanks to Webmaster Paul Tarlowe, the webcam is live - for now we'll have to settle for the still camera picture, until we figure out why the streaming video isn't working. But, hey, we're glad it's ON and not permanently OFF for lack of funding!!!

Okay, you're going to hear a lot about funding this spring. The Endangered & Nongame Species Program cannot continue to pay the expenses of this webcam. We got a reprieve last month, with permission to turn the system on, only on condition that the non-profit Conserve Wildlife Foundation of NJ raises the funds to pay expenses this season and going forward in 2014. Now please understand, the Conserve Wildlife Foundation is also on a shoestring budget, so they will be working to find sponsors and donors who (like all of us) love the peregrine webcam and can help out. We'll be recommending that donors visit www.ConserveWildlifeNJ.org/getinvolved/donate/ for more information.

So, back to peregrines: ook for more eggs to be laid, about one every two days, until there is a full clutch of three or four, that's when incubation will begin in earnest.

Welcome to spring atop 101 Hudson Street!

Around 1 p.m., both at the box...

Probably the female/Athena spending some time with the eggs. Gorgeous weather today for a change, plenty of sun and temperature near 60 degrees.

I thought that stick leaning on the front of the box looked weird....they were playing around with the zoom on the roof cam just now and I snagged this pic. Definately looks like part of the exterior housing for wires was damaged (perhaps by Sandy or one of the nor'easters over the winter). Anyone have their crazy glue? :teehee:
