3 chicks doing very well
The 4th isnt going to make it
Its not hard to see an egg not hatch, but its hard to see one fight for life and lose

:sorrow:

It is beautiful to see Male comfort Female
He stays nearby, checks in on her, feeds her.
He's a keeper for sure. :15heartbeat:

I am completely unfamiliar with this cam.
Is it the first year of this cam?
Is it the first brood of this female?
Wish bev was on this thread.

Well 3 chicks doin well.
Rare to see falcons space their hatchs out

La Crosse..

I have avoided this cam for days....because of this little chick. It tried so hard to get out of that egg. Its little legs were just a kicking...since I avoided the cam, how did the eggshell come off? Since its head was buried in that half of the shell, it seemed it must have been stuck..possibly to the shell..

It was out like that - dead - when I got up this morning.
I scrolled back. Mom must have pulled shell off, it'd never have made it.
Yes it was hard to watch.

Her habit is to hold prey in her left foot
She has a prize mate!

One female, two males?

Now this is weird! We all thought ALMA was off line again and Genoa was completely gone. But 9 hours ago (from the moment I type this) ALMA went live on the Dairyland GENOA Youtube channel :girlcrazy:

Four big eyases, all banded too. :teehee:

I watched the Alma kids some today. I saw the banded mom twice, she seems pretty good about bringing in prey. I’m noticing how”mellow” this group of chick is. They just hang around the nestbox, some in it, some on the perch and one daring one who got out on the stick….He noticed a shadow that was cast on the wall of the nestbox building. If I were a peregrine chick, I might think I should try to get it as the shadow looked like a rope or a stick. Thankfully he didn’t think so….And there was a whole lot of down picking going on as well…

ALMA - ONE DOWN
June 17, 2021
Parent comes in with large prey, knocking #1 off
I took a screen of him fall - fludge
He can fly suffient to flutter into a tree
Parent will guard him

He had been wind surfing for 2 days, flapping, letting the wind flow over his wings

I have pics on RRP
