florence kat Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 What is so good this year, and I don't think it was evident last year, are the little clips down the right hand side, below the two main live screens, showing "edited highlights". These are the events you are most likely to have missed, (e.g. an egg being laid, change over time and the latest meal arriving), because you are not able to watch 24/7. A big thank you to those who are making this possible. It enhances the experience completely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxman Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 4 apparently now. If history is something to go by we won't have 4 chicks though. 4 is a big brood to feed. In the past usually one egg has failed to hatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hauxwell Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Since Victoria1867 left the link for the peregrine falcons from time to time I’m looking to see what she is doing in her nest, never thought I would get hooked watching a bird’s nest. Living next to The River Tyne I normally spend time cursing the kittiwakes and seagulls when on numerous occasions my washing gets splattered with their droppings, but I have to say I’m keeping an eye on the peregrine’s webcam. I’m sure she leaves her nest in the evenings to look for food. ---------- Post added 02-04-2018 at 09:19 ---------- She is still sat on her eggs in the snow. I’m wondering how long it will be before they hatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iansheff Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Looks like the snow has drifted around her as she is laid on the eggs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll be even more hooked when they start to hatch. Hard work then for the parents keeping them safe and fed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t sure if the male helped with the feeding, so far I have only seen the female, but I will keep looking to see what happens in the nest. ---------- Post added 03-04-2018 at 06:08 ---------- She’s not in her nest at the moment, first time I have seen her 4 eggs. Now where has she gone? ---------- Post added 03-04-2018 at 06:13 ---------- She’s back in the nest, missed her going back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks as though the male does the hunting for food, I think. It is very addictive in a nice way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms Interpret Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I can't get the webcam on the link to play, very frustrating!
