There are only two chicks and egg left in the nest box. I was reviewing the chat (which is in French) and there is some speculation that Polly or another falcon ate one.

BTW I don't see any archive button to click are we both using the same website?

It is at the top of the page in red. I just looked thru the archives & didn't see anything unusual, but not everything shows up in the archives. I think Eve keeps a video backup though, so she can probably look into it...

This is the link I'm using:

I'm trying to not get too upset until I can see underneath the parent. Even in the archive pics, sometimes it looked like 2 chicks there & sometimes 3. I'm hoping that the third one was just hidden...

I do not mean to be rude here but sometimes caht rooms get carried away and a lot of misinformation is passed on.

that is why I do not go into them as a rule.
so lets hope that this is the case, because an adult would not eat a live chick.

Yes, I agree, Bev! I imagine Eve is checking into it & will let us know what she finds out.

I'm afraid there are only two left. I saw with my own eyes there was only two. Spirit and Roger left them alone after the 3rd one disappeared to go search for the missing chick. Spirit came back and has been sitting on the two chicks and the egg since then. I assume Roger is out Polly hunting. (My son speaks French, so I have been getting him to translate all the info posted in the chat box at http://www.livestream.com/fauconsudem?u ... ooterlinks )

I would be VERY happy to be wrong. Maybe one chick was out of camera shot? Possible.

I'm sure you would...I watch a number of these nests & sometimes it is hard to see all of the babies. Lets hope that's the case!

Hi violetgypsie.
I hope I am not coming across strong. I do not mean to be.
By the way Welcome to the forum and thank-you for coming in. :girlluv:
We really do appreciate all opinions here and I do not know everything :wink: :wink:

Eve has just posted on the blog that Polly took one of the babies. She went out to search for the little one to see if it had fallen and was possibly alive :?

I captured this before Carly's message thinking it was a sweet pose, but now I'm too bummed to think anything is sweet! :-(

No, no worries. We were all hoping for the best.

Thanks for the welcome.

I had a feeling what was being posted was right as Eve was in that chat room and she was not disagreeing with anything being said about Polly.

OMG, I am so terribly sad to hear this development. I never really thought that Polly would take or kill one of the chicks. I haven't seen any pictures and don't won't too but I wonder if the parents were unable to prevent her from doing it one time, I fear they can't stop her next time. Of course I guess it could have been another falcon, but how likely is that? I am shocked really and very sorry.

Oh, this is really sickening and heartbreaking. I'm glad I was not watching at the time. Let's all pray for the other two chicks.
