We Have a Hatch????

April 25, 2013 - Burlington - Lift Bridge

Sue McCreadie Reports:

If I were a betting woman, I would put money on the fact that we have a hatch.  After a couple of trips to the Lift Bridge today watching Mom’s behaviour, I would say that we have a hatch.  We went down the road by the washrooms and from there, through the scope, we could see that she is no longer down flat.  Her wings were spread as if mantling and she was very restless.  We saw what we thought were tiny little white balls of fluff popping out from under her wing.  We have not witnessed any food deliveries as yet, but may have just missed them.  Dad dropped by the nest box for a short visit and then flew to the face of the Hamilton Tower.
