Cornell Bird Labs has posted on Twitter images of Big Red and Arthur’s eggs with red marks indicating possible pips.
Cornell added that this is brand new territory for them with two eggs. Big Red will not give us any hints – of course. But, it is possible that tomorrow those pips might have changed into hatches — or fuzzy little eyases with their pink legs and beak. Oh, I can’t wait.
You can watch all of the action here:
Thank you to the Cornell Lab for their Twitter feed and their streaming cam where I took my screen captures!
I went to the UK as a Commonwealth Scholar in 1990 and received my PhD from the University of Leicester in 1993. After three decades of university teaching, I retired to devote my time to the study of raptor behaviour. I am particularly interested in Ospreys and am working on a long term project on third hatch survival and siblicide in these raptors. My blog is a result of a fascination with my local wildlife and the desire to encourage others to love and care for birds! I live on the Canadian Prairies and prior to the pandemic travelled a lot. I am questioning the use of aviation fuel at the moment as we all strive to help our planet. My early research was in politics and art including British public statues exported to Southeast Asia and Vietnam Resistors that contributed much to Canadian ceramics. Books and articles were published on those subjects over a period of 3 decades. Now I am working on books for children so they can learn about the challenges our raptors face.
