The Peregrine Chick:

--- Quote from: Kinderchick on August 05, 2011, 15:49 ---Report from this site has mentioned that Allie needed to be rescued from the ground, yet a 4th time, on July 29th. Apparently, though, she has been doing well since being released again. :) The webcam was down for awhile but is now back up and both juvies and parents have been returning to the nestbox regularly. The other day, a Franklins's gull was brought into the nestbox by dad and was shared by dad & Bert.

We had a male chick with not as many rescues (never had any bird that needed 4 rescues) and he did quite well as I seem to recall (will have to check the records) - could be a good sign that Allie will be around driving watchers crazy for many years to come ....

Yes, they do, bcf. I was a little worried about Allie, given that she initially needed to be rescued 3 times.

Boy they learn fast!

Kinderchick:
It seems that Allie & Bert's flying skills are improving all the time, with the following post from the website...

With good, dry weather the past several days, Allie's progress has gone from very questionable to very competent, given the distances and heights they are both now achieving.

This is very good news! :D
