They don't tend to start incubating the eggs until they 've laid the next to last one. This ensures they all hatch at about the same time.

zach   235 #14 Posted April 1, 2020 2 eggs now!  Maybe more out of camera view. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Orangepip   10 #15 Posted April 1, 2020 I don't know where the second egg is, hopefully tucked away. They're both very unsettled this afternoon, she's screeching at something and keeps flying off, with the tiercel following. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
taxman   12 #16 Posted April 2, 2020 Looks like she has started incubating the two eggs that are there which indicates that will be all she lays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Baron99   809 #17 Posted April 7, 2020 I keep dipping in & out of this.  From looking at the Peregrine at the moment, clearly sitting on at least 1 egg?  Daft question. I've only seen 1 bird in the nest. Are there actually 2 & do they alternate on the nest, while the other goes off to feed?

zach   235 #20 Posted April 9, 2020 Both Sheffield and Nottingham have two eggs. The Notts ones tend to have steady years, it looks like the Sheffield ones will have a couple of chicks this year.  A welcome short break from other matters watching them.
