Dorothy and E2’s first egg has hatched at the Cathedral of Learning (approximately 6:25am).
Good morning, Dorothy and baby!
Watch for the first feeding and E2’s moment to meet his first hatchling of 2013.
Updates:
6:36am: A peek at the tiny baby (white fluffy near the eggs; you can see his beak). Also look at the dark egg with the white seam near Dorothy’s foot. It’s getting ready to hatch.

Welcome to the world, little one!
Congratulations! Pittsburgh.
E2 delivered the first meal around 9:42am and Dorothy allowed him to chick-sit for a short time. Congrats Dorothy & E2!
Hope we get at least four this year! It’d be awesome to see the nest box overflowing with five.
