They are all very attached to one another, going through the video, they all hang out with each other pretty evenly. When one does something new however, they all seem to take an extraordinary interest in that sib and the activity. Took White jumping down on the ledge to get the first of the females up on the box edge, the males (White & Yellow) have been doing it for days but White needed to wander off to get Red to try ...
The Peregrine Chick:
1351 hrs (local) - White has gone a wandering down the ledge again ... Red is still on the edge watching him. He's tucked up at the camera at the far end, getting out of the wind from what I can see ...

The Peregrine Chick:
1340 hrs (local) - first of our females, Red, is up on the box edge!! She's preening and visiting with White. She's quite attached to him = yesterday she was nibbling on his toes when he was sitting on the nestbox. And she does tend to come and "play" with him when he's on his own.

--- End quote ---
No, a couple of pairs have raised up to 6 chicks successfully, but 4 is considered the average highest number of eggs in a nest - more than that is rare. One of our females (Winnie in Omaha) was a 2 or 3 time 6-egger.
