Egg Number Three Has Arrived
If you were tuning into the Falcon Cam last night (3/24) around 10:45 pm you likely saw the arrival of the third egg. If a fourth egg is on the way, we expect it to be laid sometime between Sunday (3/26) afternoon and Monday (3/27) evening.

The female falcon (right) enters the nest box to spend some time atop the three eggs, relieving the male (left) who was previously sitting on them.
