Red-tailed Hawks lay their eggs one at a time, 36-48 hours apart. When the first egg is laid, you see lots of behavioral changes. The female stops standing upright on the nest, and begins to lay flat. She also does a “shimmy”, where she wiggles to get the best contact between her brood patch on her chest and the eggs, when she lays down. The pair also does exchanges, where the male takes over egg warming duties and gives the female a break.
Today, I saw all of these behaviors. So there is a good chance an egg was laid. If so, this would mean we might have hatchlings on the last week of April or the first week of May. Fingers crossed!
