Just when we’d thought Carla was done with egg laying Sara Showers saw 4 eggs at the nest this morning before dawn. We were surprised because peregrines usually lay an egg every other day. This one took twice as long and is 4 days after the prior egg.

It took a bit of searching the archives to find when it happened. Here is the moment at 4:34am.

Video of the few minutes before and after the egg appeared.

So my question about incubation is answered. It began, as it should, after the next-to-last egg.
