<p>My mom swears that she sees a crack in one of the eggs (I’ve got her hooked now too)…lucky it’s almost time for me to go home!</p>
<p>Does all the “nesting” and moving around mean anything? They seem to be rearranging the eggs a lot today, almost like they are turning them over. Is there something we need to look for to know hatching is coming soon?</p>
<p>in the meantime, [url=<a href=“http://www.kgw.com/lifestyle/raptor-cam]kgw.com”>http://www.kgw.com/lifestyle/raptor-cam]kgw.com</a> | Portland News, Local News, Breaking News, Weather | KGW Audubon Raptor Cam<a href=“red-tail%20hawks”>/url</a>, the litte guys are beginning to stretch their legs and exploring the boundary of their nest. </p>
<p>pigeon feathers are everywhere. two pigeon remains that need to be removed.</p>
<p>Lots of bird calls now.</p>
<p>I need to get back to my life, can these eggs please hatch? As if CC doesn’t take up enough of my time, now this…bird crack.</p>
<p>lol, “bird crack”</p>
<p>I feel the same way, and have dragged others into my addiction…D texted me the other night, “I’ve been watching these stupid eagles for over an hour”</p>
<p>I’m afraid once they hatch, I’ll have MORE reason to watch…“Oh, look, baby’s first worm!”</p>
<p>Just caught the birds trading places. I am sorry to say that I did not see a “crack” in one of the eggs.</p>
<p>Neither did I. 
They sure were attentive to the eggs at the “shift change.”</p>
<p>They seemed to be more vocal and moving around more today. It might just be that those are the snapshots that I caught today. I thought that maybe that meant the eggs were going to hatch earlier today. Apparently that is not the case.</p>
<p>I saw it too…and didn’t see a crack…even though I looked really hard! Oh well. </p>
<p>There is also a facebook page, search fb on Hornby Eagles…</p>
<p>I was marveling this morning at how patient these birds are - sitting there, nothing to read, no music, no one to talk to - and then I realized that I’m sitting here WATCHING the bird just sitting there. Nothing to read, no music, no one to talk to…Ha!</p>
<p>I feel so sorry for them when that wind gusts.</p>
<p>Is anybody watching the aerial view with both in the nest right now?</p>
<p>I’m watching. It is so addicting. I like the close up better, although they do have a beautiful spot.</p>
<p>I like the prior position of the camera…it looks far away now.</p>
<p>There is a button on the bottom of the screen that explodes the picture to full screen view. The detail is not as tight but it allows you to get a much better appreciation of the nest and the surroundings. It also might be better when/if we actually get any eaglets.</p>
<p>Eagle mom & Eagle dad are together!</p>
<p>One egg might have a nice size hole in it now. I say might, because it is either a hole, or it is just dirt that I was looking at.</p>
<p>justamom and anyone else who is worrying they’ll miss the hatching - it takes anywhere from 12 to 48 hours for the chicks to get out of the eggs once they start breaking the shell. </p>
<p>here’s a link with more info on eagles <a href=“http://www.baldeagleinfo.com/eagle/eagle4.html[/url]”>http://www.baldeagleinfo.com/eagle/eagle4.html</a></p>
<p>Posted on the fb site just now…</p>
<p>When Mom rolled the eggs at 6:34 A.M, we saw what we believe to be a pip hole in one of the eggs! Even better, we can hear little “cheep, cheep” sounds coming from the eaglet inside the egg. It will excerise its lungs and let the parents know “I’m here!” as it works to get out of the shell. Full hatch can take several hours.

<p>DARN WORK. DARN INTERNET FILTERS. grrrrrr</p>
<p>Hmmmm. . . mama just left for a few seconds and I didn’t notice any holes. (But then I’m 112 years old and don’t see all that well.)</p>
