I attended MEC today to check the camera monitor and the birds progress. Just arrived at a shift chance but couldn’t get the camera out in time to snap a shot of the three eggs. Thank goodness for the camera phone and I was able to get this photo before the adult settled down on the three eggs. Interestingly, two of the eggs are a strong reddish colour - (typical of what we usually see), and the third egg is almost pure white.

As you can see, the camera is working just fine, but we’re still having problems with the computer that processes the camera image and delivers it to the CPF web site. We’re still working on it!
Hatch is very soon, Stay tuned…………

We are still planning to replace the aging camera at this site with one of the newer IP cameras as soon as money becomes available so we can get ride of the computer, as they have always been the weakest link and our biggest problem at all of the nest sites where we have cameras!!
