We now can see the third Pip happening when Ellie takes her break. The Egg Tooth of the hatching owlet is also showing through the hole of the shell which is fairly large and the owlet inside can barely be seen moving. The oldest owlet is getting in some wing stretches, while the second owlet is making those neck muscles stronger by repeatedly lifting its head.

Tom arrives to give Angel her morning break. As the pair switch places, we get a nice glimpse of the two eggs. Tom takes his place on the eggs, does a few nestorations, then rolls them before settling down to take his turn at incubating for a while. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR FIRST EGG STARTS 04/21/23. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR SECOND EGG STARTS 04/24/23. 🥚 TOM AND ANGEL'S FIRST EGG LAID 03/24/23 at 03:56 PM 🥚 TOM AND ANGEL'S SECOND EGG LAID 03/27/23 at 08:18 PM 🥚 INCUBATION PERIOD: 28-35 days. 🐥NESTING PERIOD: 42-46 days. #Nature #Leucistic #RedTailedHawk #Wildlife #BirdsOfPrey #Hawk Article on a Leucistic Red-tailed Hawk: https://wildlife.foothillsclusters.com/a-very-unusual-leucistic-redtailed-hawk Courtesy Of: Window to Wildlife Link: https://www.windowtowildlife.org/ Cam Links: Overhead Cam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQ0mCowoEUI Longrange Cam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxQkhFgIZkc Stats (from cam link above): Location- Tennessee (exact location cannot be given for her safety) Angel - Female, 7+ years of age, Leucistic (White) Unnamed Mate- Male, 3+ years of age, Normal Coloration Nest: 40 feet tall, 3 feet long x 1.5 feet wide, human-reinforced nest Cams: Above the nest is a tiny pinhole cam so we don't intrude into the small nest, this cam does not have IR (night vision).

Somebody is very hungry and mom wastes no time shredding a meal for her hungry owlet. We only see her feed the oldest one, as the younger owlet is newly hatched, already had a meal earlier, and is fast asleep. We can see how fast the first owlet has matured already. Holding its head up for longer periods of time and grabbing the prey from mom's beak. They grow up so fast, sometimes too fast for us, but necessary for survival. ** Pip watch starts for the third egg today. 🐥 FIRST OWLET HATCHED 04/08/23 AT 04:30 (confirmed). 🐥 SECOND OWLET HATCHED 04/10/23 AT 04:15 (confirmed). 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR FIRST EGG STARTS 04/03/23. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR SECOND EGG STARTS 04/07/23. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR THIRD EGG STARTS 04/11/23. 🥚 ELLIE'S FIRST EGG LAID: 03/04/23 before 22:08 (first confirmed sighting of egg) 🥚 ELLIE'S SECOND EGG LAID: 03/08/23 before 18:25 (first confirmed sighting of egg) 🥚 ELLIE'S THIRD EGG LAID: 03/12/23 before 05:54 (first confirmed sighting of egg) #Nature #GreatHornedOwl #Wildlife #BirdsOfPrey #Owl #Canada #EllisBirdFarm Courtesy Of: Ellis Bird Farm Location: Alberta, Canada Cam Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rjXIVdIPu8 Ellis Bird Farm Home Page: https://www.ellisbirdfarm.ca The Story of Ellie and Albert-The Ellis Bird Farm Great Horned Owls: https://lacombeonline.com/articles/great-horned-owls-nest-live-at-the-ellis-bird-farm This video may feature materials protected by the Fair Use guidelines of Section 107 of the Copyright Act.

Ellie has left for her break giving us a wonderful view of her two new owlets. Bobbleheads, wing stretches, and snuggles are all part of being a newly hatched owlet and they give us quite the show of it. 😊 After being gone for 7 minutes, Ellie returns to settle back down on her owlets and egg, keeping them warm and safe.

Angel leaves for an evening break which gives us the chance to view her two beautiful eggs. She flies back from the right of the nest, lands on a branch, then flies up to the nest.

Albert brings a rodent to the nest for Ellie to feed to the owlet.

Ellie has been watching for Albert when she seems to spot him off-cam and leaves to take her break. The owlet gives us a peep and a few bobblehead moments when some Geese pass over the nest. After all that activity, the owlet is tuckered out and falls asleep on its unhatched siblings. Ellie returns to the nest after 12 minutes to wait for Albert to bring prey to the nest. Then she settles back down over her owlet and eggs.

Albert shows up at the nest with a rat for Ellie.

**Just an observation viewing the video frame by frame. If anyone sees something different, please let me know. 😊 Ellie has been waiting for Albert to bring prey so she can take her break. Finally, he arrives off-cam and Ellie leaves to meet him. When she leaves, her talons roll the pipped egg, placing the hole in the egg at the top. The third egg is barely seen when a feather blew from her wings and is hidden under the grass. The roundness of the egg can be seen through the feather. The chirping heard is Ellie. Most likely when she retrieved the prey from Albert. The same chirping she did when Albert brought her the bird (large prey) for dinner a few days ago. (Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5PGIzfW2o0&t=89s ) Plus the chirping sound is by the speaker as other muffled noises are also heard. These are the same sounds you hear whenever they land or move on the branch out of cam range. When Ellie returns, she taps the pipped egg with her beak. There are still 2 rodents in the nest untouched as well. The pip can clearly be seen at the top of the egg, off to the right. Left at 22:04 and Returned at 06:11. **Pip watch for the second egg started yesterday, 04/07/23, but on average, usually happens around the third watch day. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR FIRST EGG STARTS 04/03/23. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR SECOND EGG STARTS 04/07/23. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR THIRD EGG STARTS 04/11/23. 🥚 ELLIE'S FIRST EGG LAID: 03/04/23 before 22:08 (first confirmed sighting of egg) 🥚 ELLIE'S SECOND EGG LAID: 03/08/23 before 18:25 (first confirmed sighting of egg) 🥚 ELLIE'S THIRD EGG LAID: 03/12/23 before 05:54 (first confirmed sighting of egg) #Nature #GreatHornedOwl #Wildlife #BirdsOfPrey #Owl #Canada #EllisBirdFarm Courtesy Of: Ellis Bird Farm Location: Alberta, Canada Cam Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rjXIVdIPu8 Ellis Bird Farm Home Page: https://www.ellisbirdfarm.ca The Story of Ellie and Albert-The Ellis Bird Farm Great Horned Owls: https://lacombeonline.com/articles/great-horned-owls-nest-live-at-the-ellis-bird-farm This video may feature materials protected by the Fair Use guidelines of Section 107 of the Copyright Act.

While Ellie is rolling her eggs, we get a quick glimpse at the pip on her egg. The hole has gotten larger compared to the last sighting. Directly above the hole in the egg is a bright white spot. Most likely this is the first sighting of the owlet's Egg Tooth. A hard tooth-like projection at the top and end of the beak. Used to cut through the membrane and break apart the shee so the owlet can hatch. It will fall off in about 7-14 days from hatching.

Albert flies in, bringing Ellie a rat to the nest for breakfast. Instead of swallowing it, she puts it in the pantry. As Albert is still standing there hooting, she reaches up and preens a few feathers on his cheek, showing her appreciation for the meal. Albert hoots once again then he departs from the nest and goes up onto the branch. No pip at this time but Ellie knows it's very close and had been storing some food, then leaving with it up onto the branch during the night. Making sure fresh prey would be available to the hatchling when it is needed. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR FIRST EGG STARTS 04/03/23. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR SECOND EGG STARTS 04/07/23. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR THIRD EGG STARTS 04/11/23. 🥚 ELLIE'S FIRST EGG LAID: 03/04/23 before 22:08 (first confirmed sighting of egg) 🥚 ELLIE'S SECOND EGG LAID: 03/08/23 before 18:25 (first confirmed sighting of egg) 🥚 ELLIE'S THIRD EGG LAID: 03/12/23 before 05:54 (first confirmed sighting of egg) #Nature #GreatHornedOwl #Wildlife #BirdsOfPrey #Owl #Canada #EllisBirdFarm Courtesy Of: Ellis Bird Farm Location: Alberta, Canada Cam Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rjXIVdIPu8 Ellis Bird Farm Home Page: https://www.ellisbirdfarm.ca The Story of Ellie and Albert-The Ellis Bird Farm Great Horned Owls: https://lacombeonline.com/articles/great-horned-owls-nest-live-at-the-ellis-bird-farm This video may feature materials protected by the Fair Use guidelines of Section 107 of the Copyright Act.

The female Eagle Owl spots her mate off-cam, leaves to take her break, and most likely receives a meal from him. While she is gone, we get a great view of the 3 eggs. When she returns, we can just get a glimpse of her mate leaving the outer branch, flying in front of the nest. She turns to look at him, then settles back down on her eggs.

Ellie leaves to take another break. While she is gone, Albert shows up at the nest with grunts and hoots. He walks over to his eggs and with his call, greets them as if to say, "It's ok little ones, Mom will be back soon, Daddy is here". He has been a very attentive mate and enjoys talking to his soon-to-be owlets often. By now, one of them should be chirping inside the egg, so maybe this is his way of coaxing the owlet out of its shell. Most birds talk to their eggs so when the babies are hatched, they are used to the sounds that will be around them and to help them recognize their parent's calls. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR FIRST EGG STARTS 04/03/23. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR SECOND EGG STARTS 04/07/23. 🐣 PIP WATCH FOR THIRD EGG STARTS 04/11/23. 🥚 ELLIE'S FIRST EGG LAID: 03/04/23 before 22:08 (first confirmed sighting of egg) 🥚 ELLIE'S SECOND EGG LAID: 03/08/23 before 18:25 (first confirmed sighting of egg) 🥚 ELLIE'S THIRD EGG LAID: 03/12/23 before 05:54 (first confirmed sighting of egg) #Nature #GreatHornedOwl #Wildlife #BirdsOfPrey #Owl #Canada #EllisBirdFarm Courtesy Of: Ellis Bird Farm Location: Alberta, Canada Cam Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rjXIVdIPu8 Ellis Bird Farm Home Page: https://www.ellisbirdfarm.ca The Story of Ellie and Albert-The Ellis Bird Farm Great Horned Owls: https://lacombeonline.com/articles/great-horned-owls-nest-live-at-the-ellis-bird-farm This video may feature materials protected by the Fair Use guidelines of Section 107 of the Copyright Act.

Ellie starts with her happy grunts to see Albert. Who is delivering dinner right on schedule. Ellie is so excited that she continues her grunts the whole time she is swallowing her dinner.

After a nice relaxing day in the nest, it's time for Ellie to take her break. A time when she can get up, move around, and stretch her wings. Soon, her time will be limited as she will hopefully have 3 hungry mouths to feed and protect.

The female Eagle Owl hears her mate off-cam call to her. She leaves the nest giving us a nice view of the 3 eggs. The pair go into a faintly heard duet off-cam. A few minutes later she returns to her incubation duties and settles back on top of the eggs.

Albert brings Ellie a bird for dinner and she happily chitters for her large meal. It's a bit too big to swallow, so Ellie leaves the nest where she can have the room she needs to shred the meal that Albert has brought her.

Angel rode out the storm that rolled through in the early morning hours. She's a bit damp and tired this morning, but thankfully, she and her eggs are fine. 🥚 TOM AND ANGEL'S FIRST EGG LAID 03/24/23 at 03:56 PM 🥚 TOM AND ANGEL'S SECOND EGG LAID 03/27/23 at 08:18 PM #Nature #Leucistic #RedTailedHawk #Wildlife #BirdsOfPrey #Hawk Article on a Leucistic Red-tailed Hawk: https://wildlife.foothillsclusters.com/a-very-unusual-leucistic-redtailed-hawk Courtesy Of: Window to Wildlife Link: https://www.windowtowildlife.org/ Cam Links: Overhead Cam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQ0mCowoEUI Longrange Cam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxQkhFgIZkc Stats (from cam link above): Location- Tennessee (exact location cannot be given for her safety) Angel - Female, 7+ years of age, Leucistic (White) Unnamed Mate- Male, 3+ years of age, Normal Coloration Nest: 40 feet tall, 3 feet long x 1.5 feet wide, human-reinforced nest Cams: Above the nest is a tiny pinhole cam so we don't intrude into the small nest, this cam does not have IR (night vision).

Angel's Story (from cam link above): Angel is a very rare Leucistic Red-Tailed Hawk. 2 years ago, Angel & Mohawk (no longer around) raised 3 chicks and they fledged successfully. Last year Angel chose a new mate and he was still a subadult. Since the new male was not fully mature, they did not have eggs last year. This year he has fully matured and their bond seems strong. Will post a view soon about the history of Angel and how we came to put in this very unique and rare camera.

Ellie leaves to take her break. While she is gone, Albert arrives with grunts and hoots to the nest. He hops down to the nest, walks over to his eggs and while looking directly down at them, greets them with his call. Then he pecks at the nest for a second and quietly walks back up onto the branch. Ellie arrives shortly after him to resume incubating the eggs. 🥚 ELLIE'S FIRST EGG LAID: 03/04/23 before 22:08 (first confirmed sighting of egg) 🥚 ELLIE'S SECOND EGG LAID: 03/08/23 before 18:25 (first confirmed sighting of egg) 🥚 ELLIE'S THIRD EGG LAID: 03/12/23 before 05:54 (first confirmed sighting of egg) #Nature #GreatHornedOwl #Wildlife #BirdsOfPrey #Owl #Canada #EllisBirdFarm Courtesy Of: Ellis Bird Farm Location: Alberta, Canada Cam Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rjXIVdIPu8 Ellis Bird Farm Home Page: https://www.ellisbirdfarm.ca The Story of Ellie and Albert-The Ellis Bird Farm Great Horned Owls: https://lacombeonline.com/articles/great-horned-owls-nest-live-at-the-ellis-bird-farm This video may feature materials protected by the Fair Use guidelines of Section 107 of the Copyright Act.

Angel is incubating her eggs when Tom briefly stops by to deliver a Shrew to her. The transfer goes smoothly this time then leaves the nest once again. Shrews are mole-like in appearance except the snout is longer, and unlike a Mole's short tail, a Shrew has a longer tail. Similar to a mouse's tail, but thicker. A Shrew also lives above ground, unlike the Mole which lives underground. 🥚 TOM AND ANGEL'S FIRST EGG LAID 03/24/23 at 03:56 PM 🥚 TOM AND ANGEL'S SECOND EGG LAID 03/27/23 at 08:18 PM #Nature #Leucistic #RedTailedHawk #Wildlife #BirdsOfPrey #Hawk Article on a Leucistic Red-tailed Hawk: https://wildlife.foothillsclusters.com/a-very-unusual-leucistic-redtailed-hawk Courtesy Of: Window to Wildlife Link: https://www.windowtowildlife.org/ Cam Links: Overhead Cam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQ0mCowoEUI Longrange Cam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxQkhFgIZkc Stats (from cam link above): Location- Tennessee (exact location cannot be given for her safety) Angel - Female, 7+ years of age, Leucistic (White) Unnamed Mate- Male, 3+ years of age, Normal Coloration Nest: 40 feet tall, 3 feet long x 1.5 feet wide, human-reinforced nest Cams: Above the nest is a tiny pinhole cam so we don't intrude into the small nest, this cam does not have IR (night vision).

Tom shows up at the nest with empty talons. He doesn't stay long as he can tell his mate is hungry and wants a meal. Angel then gets up to roll her two eggs. One mostly white, and one mostly speckled. 🥚 TOM AND ANGEL'S FIRST EGG LAID 03/24/23 at 03:56 PM 🥚 TOM AND ANGEL'S SECOND EGG LAID 03/27/23 at 08:18 PM #Nature #Leucistic #RedTailedHawk #Wildlife #BirdsOfPrey #Hawk Article on a Leucistic Red-tailed Hawk: https://wildlife.foothillsclusters.com/a-very-unusual-leucistic-redtailed-hawk Courtesy Of: Window to Wildlife Link: https://www.windowtowildlife.org/ Cam Links: Overhead Cam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQ0mCowoEUI Longrange Cam: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxQkhFgIZkc Stats (from cam link above): Location- Tennessee (exact location cannot be given for her safety) Angel - Female, 7+ years of age, Leucistic (White) Unnamed Mate- Male, 3+ years of age, Normal Coloration Nest: 40 feet tall, 3 feet long x 1.5 feet wide, human-reinforced nest Cams: Above the nest is a tiny pinhole cam so we don't intrude into the small nest, this cam does not have IR (night vision).
