!!! Incubation continues.

May 05, 2009 - Etobicoke - William Osler

Mark Nash Reports:

Another site visit today revealed a little more information yet again about the female, but her identity still remains a mystery!

I arrived just at the perfect time to catch the incubating female leaving the nest tray for a wing stretch and a quick bite to eat as she flew over to the hydro tower to take advantage of a fresh cache of food that her mate had earlier brought in for her and deposited in one of their secret hiding spots.  As she stood up on the nest tray to reveal her four unhatched eggs, I was finally able to catch the colours of her leg band which was clearly visible as a Black over Green coloured band.  Sadly, it happened so quickly, I was not able to identify the digits on the band.  Also, at this time of day,  the low light and shadows that fall in behind the pillar make it very difficult to see something that small in any detail.  We are expecting a hatch in the next week to ten days if everything has gone well.  Stay tuned,,,, - More to come….
