Incubating; this egg was probably laid Feb. 17 and should have hatched around March 24.

Thanks, Marianne, for your coverage here!

2022 Summary

The cam was down from January 30 - February 17, and there was one egg when the cam started streaming again; given past history, it's likely there were additional eggs laid that didn't survive, and we won't know approximately when that egg was laid until it hatches.
Folks on Chat reported that the egg may have been punctured by the talon of one of the adults around March 7-9; whether or not that was the cause, the egg didn't hatch; if it was laid on February 17, March 29 would have been 40 days, and it's likely the hatch window ended before that.

The adults continued to incubate well past the hatch window. On May 14, a scrub jay broke the egg; it was at least 86 days after it was laid, and male Jak was still incubating part of the time.

Hoping for a better outcome in 2023.
