Today, 22 March, at 4:45pm Carla laid her third egg of 2026 at the Cathedral of Learning peregrine nest. Thanks to John English for texting me right away and sending the screen grab above.

This video shows the moment she laid the egg. You can heavy raindrops falling shortly thereafter. Fortunately Carla has a roof over the scrape.

Carla will be staying close to the eggs right now because there’s a thunderstorm passing through.

Ecco might wait until it’s gone to stop by and greet the addition to their family.

Meanwhile Carla guards them.
