MGE Falcons Produce a Full Clutch
April 9, 2024
We're happy to report that the MGE peregrine falcons have four eggs, or a "full clutch," in the nesting box atop Blount Generating Station.
Trudy laid the first egg on Easter morning, March 31, and the second during our spring snowstorm on April 2. The third and fourth eggs arrived April 5 and April 7, respectively. This is likely the final egg of the 2024 season, but we're watching for a possible fifth egg this week.
You can watch Trudy and her mate, Melvin, take turns incubating the eggs on our livestream falcon cam. We expect hatching to occur between May 8 and 11!
