Eggs still there ..... ??
Where'd you eggspect the eggs to go?
Some predators will steal eggs. Not as likely with a nest like this as getting nestlings stolen, but still possible.

BIG LONG DOUBLE BARGE
April 30, 2022
Around 8 am a very long barge came downriver.
2 ultra long solid cars - reminded me of a airport runway
Bet that was tricky to load!
EGGS April 3, 5, 7, 10
so we are looking at hatch watch May 7

Nora, thanks for the pic of parent and eggs here at GSB. Do you know if owl deterrent measures are in place at the nest box?
Shep, that was an impressive barge. The folks who manage them through the locks are real artists.

STL, about a week means that we should start watching around the 9th?
. Beautiful day on the Mississippi.
SHEP, that barge looks about the size of an aircraft carrier flight deck.

Dawn and sunrise pics beautiful today.. Happy Cinco de Mayo, everybirdie.
Nothing happening hatch-wise yet, Jaspurr. RRP has a notation on the live stream site that May 10 is their estimated date.
I've been really impressed with Zooey and Newman shimmying around with each change-over to get all 4 eggs under protection.

STL, Zooey has really stepped up to the plate when it comes to protecting the box. When there was only Chance in the box she seemed to be constantly present. I don't know about GHO measures at the box but Zooey's and Newman's constant presence hopefully will make the GHO's think twice about attacking the box this year. I was glad Shen you decided to return to watching the box and saw and heard Chance. I learned to turn the volume down on my computer watching her. What a joy she was. Getting excited about the new hatch. In the meantime, I enjoy watching the view of the Mississippi from the cam.

Jaspurr, keep thinking safety for the eggs and eyeasses to come!
Won't be too long now until there are pips to watch!

SHEP, thank you for the nestbox cam. I have it pasted at the top of my favorites list.
I would love to be on that tug pushing the barge up the river this morning.

Lori, thanks for the video. It's getting close to time for the eggs to hatch, and N and Z seem to roll the eggs more often. Restless wiggling for sure.
Maybe peregrine egglets talk to the parents like BE eggs do?? So far this morning, I don't see any pips. The changeover pic could be Z out and N coming in, or the other way round! They are really quick, and I have to use the stop-action feature to get any clear pic at all.
Be safe to all.
