Casper and Chessie Have Two Eggs at William Osler!!!
April 05, 2013 - Etobicoke - William Osler
Tracy Simpson Reports:
My second stop yesterday was to check up our new pairing at the William Osler Hospital and their progress towards eggs. Casper is the most excited male and has done everything to bring eggs to the tray including flight displays, scrape work and vocalizing while Chessie is trying to sleep!! His enthusiasm is contagious and I now often stop by the site for a brief look at his antics of the day. Yesterday I went up to check the monitor and there were two beautiful eggs in the nest tray in full view!! Good going Casper and Chessie! Back downstairs, I spent some time on site watching the ledge and Casper was clearly on babysitting duties. He was sitting 5 feet to the left of the tray sleeping!! Every once in a while he would look back towards the tower with a look like, “I am sooo babysitting right now…!” While he was in guard-the-egg mode rather than cover-the-egg, the clutch is not yet complete and serious incubation will begin after the third one arrives.
On Wednesday, hospital security during rounds noticed the first egg in the tray and yesterday, on Thursday, the second was present. This dates the first egg to April 2nd and we are anxiously awaiting more!! Congratulations Casper and Chessie and the awesome folks at William Osler Hospital!! I will have pictures for you later today!!
