Alcoa 2011/2012

Nou dan maar eens afwachten wat het hier wordt

Klik op de foto dan wordt hij groter, in het midden van de foto zie je een
licht circkeltje, daar ligt het ei

Jeetje, dat lijkt mij geen lekker plekje voor een nest

Link plekkie dan had ze toch beter in die mooie pink kast kunnen gaan
Bedankt dames voor de update!

Hm nog steeds een ei, ach ze slaan wel eens meer een dagje extra over!
Bedankt voor de update Anca!

The egg is back in view today. Over the last few days, Ava had the egg tucked in the corner behind the vertical beam hiding it from our vantage point. Havoc visited the ledge today and looked like he might take a turn incubating. But he wasn't there for long before taking flight.

This egg certainly gets around! Today it is further along the ledge at the very edge of the frame I can photograph. Of some concern is more often than not, the eggs appear to be unattended and/or uncovered when I drop by.

Ha Bedankt Dorien voor deze updates en de foto's, Mooi om Havoc weer te zien!

The second egg has been out of sight since Thursday last week and the ledge noticeably absent of Ava. Havoc is missing from his usual vantage point. All indications are that the nest attempt has failed.

The newly relocated nest box for Ava and Havoc remains vacant. Regular patrols of the power station continue in case Ava returns to her nesting spot from 2010 and 2011, but at this stage there is no evidence of a nest.

In the meantime Ava and Havoc continue to visit the power station regularly. We have had reports from employees of courting between the two birds, now all they need to do is find their nest! For now the falcons seem to keep as much of an eye on us as we do on them.

I spy with my little eye something beginning with…..n! Yes, that is right; after many patrols of the power station structure we have finally found Ava and Havoc’s nest this season complete with three eggs! However we aren’t counting our peregrine chicks before they hatch, particularly as the pair’s previous nests on the power station structure haven’t provided successful outcomes.

This year the pair has chosen a different area of the power station structure to nest on than previous years. Ava has chosen to nest on a ledge just under the seventh floor of the power station. This location is much more accessible than last year, so we will be able to keep an eye on the progress of the nest and provide regular updates.

The power station’s Environmental Scientist Lisa Mills has been keeping a close eye on the pair and recently snapped Havoc providing for his mate. His right claw contains something fluffy, grey and squawking which he passed over to Ava. He then proceeded to intimidate Lisa out of the immediate area!
Stay tuned...

Mooie campics

We have been monitoring the falcon’s nest every few days and after a 33 day incubation period we expected the three eggs to have hatched by now. Therefore, unfortunately all indications are that Ava and Havoc’s nest attempt has failed this year.

Hmmmmmmmmmm das balen!!!
