Big girl hit the building and slid...doesn't appear hurt though according to the latest update.

Dgif quote: we have three very strong fliers. Saw Ethel come in for a superb landing on the roof. Saw the other girl fly from corner to corner before she made her first strong flight.
So far so good, only wish I could have seen them leave the cage.
carly:
on BCAW they are saying that all three have fledged! Someone from the board is on the fledge watch I think so they are getting updates! I just came home and wanted to see them and voila..they are free! :-*
some great photos over there of after the chicks left the cage..!
Start here for details and photos of the days events so far!

Apparently the one on the cam fledged a few minutes ago. Not sure about the other female.

Fledged!
The male has fledged! He took strong flight gaining altitude before landing atop the Riverfront Plaza west tower to rest and enjoy a new perspective. Both of the females have left the pen. 02/AD is perched on the ledge and 03/AD is perched atop the camera housing. We will post more updates later today.
