Dorothy laid her first egg of 2011 on Sunday, March 13 at 1:43pm. Here are three photos of her with her first egg of the season.
(The colors are a bit washed out. The egg is actually dark rusty red.)

I was lucky enough to be on at the right time. it was wonderful, really tiring for her but then it’s her job and now we get to do ours, neb into her every moment & leave her no privacy.
Faith – your last comment is perfect!! Put a smile on my face first thing Monday morning! thanks!
Missed Dori by about 15 minutes but did see Harrisburg lay her 2nd 🙂
Also the Wilmington nest is busy again with the female excavating a rather large scrape. http://www.dosbirds.org/wilmfalcons
