Beth - Thanks for news about the first egg at Salt Lake City! I'd just about given up on that nest because there was no sign of a kestrel every time I checked.

Still 4 chicks and 1 egg, so I don't think the last egg will hatch.

Boise :hatchegg:
04/27/2016:

What an exciting morning! We’re thrilled to announce that the first American Kestrel chick has hatched. Based on reports from dedicated Bosch KestrelCam watchers, we believe the time of hatching was around 7:30 a.m. It also looks as if two more eggs have pipped, a term that means the chicks have begun to break through their eggs to start the hatching process.


You can see another egg with a great pip started

WOW!!!Boise is on a roll :eggbounce:
4/27/2016:
At around 7:30am, the first nestling emerged from its egg! While the female was off the eggs, two of the other eggs appear to be "pipped." Pipping means that the nestling inside made a small breathing hole in the shell, which means a full hatching is imminent. The other four eggs could hatch at any time, so stay tuned for news!
:hatchegg:
1pm UPDATE: The second and third egg hatched! Two new nestlings were revealed at 12:50pm when the female moved. Only two eggs left to go!
:hatchegg: :hatchegg:
2:15pm UPDATE: The fourth chick arrived! It hatched during a feeding session. Only one egg left to hatch!
:hatchegg:

Boise - Just caught part of a feeding here. I think I saw 5 chicks here, meaning that the last egg hatched. But I'm not sure.

Boise - The chicks should be fledging in less than a week. That's a good thing because the nest is getting full!

Image


Salt Lake City - An empty shell is visible, so there must be at least one hatch here.
