Unusual (to me) combination but fun! at that feeder, ljames... Wanted to bring a piece of history back from "extinction" and here is a newer book on what extinct prey most likely formed our falcons incredible speed....but one never hear about.... A newer book Title: The Passenger Pigeon: Its History and Extinction author A.W. Schorger Just as the cheetah and the gazelle formed to match speed....I believe the now extinct passenger pigeon formed alongside the peregrine as they were both "wanderers"....just my opinion... (Book May be available at your local library) |

Everybody in holding pattern around the birdfeeder this morning. They fill it about every other day, but it empties up pretty quickly. Thanks for that info Matrix, interesting, I will look for that next time I go to the library. |

October 12 -Update- Yesterday the egg on the far right, # 28, nicknamed for now “Miss Perfect” began to show internal movement. She pipped into the air cell (internal pipping), and you could see her head moving during candling. I do not like to candle for long because the light is so bright for her eyes. I oriented the egg so the head is facing the camera, so a crack (external pip) would be facing your view, about 1/3 the way down from the top of the egg. I placed a microphone that is leaning on the egg, with the gain all the way up. Because of the fan in the hatcher there is a background hum. But you can hear occasional scratching, pecking and even a chirp, chortle or kick. The other two eggs have not shown movement in the air cell, so they are a day behind. They are warm/ generating heat, so it’s OK, they are just behind schedule, which is very typical for eggs. It’s not as predictable as the weather. |

Here is the process on the eggs now. Dash helped Goofy on expert advice. |

Goofy was the first to hatch (with help from Dash because of the misshapen, thick shell. |
