Radisson - 2009 / Trey & Princess
Kinderchick:
Ooooo! Nice close-up, TPC! And for the first time, I think I could tell the brothers apart from the sister. ;D Is the female the largest chick? ???
And yes, congrats, Lara, on the birth of your own wee chick, Dugal! ;D

Did they land on the street or on window ledges?

I don't think so. We know Hurricane was in Grand Forks in the spring (April, I think) but have heard nothing about him since then, or about his brother and sister at all.
As I recall, at least one was rescued by a bus driver from the middle of Portage Avenue in the early hours of the morning. I don't remember about the other two.

Yes , that was 2007 on the west side, my first year watching.
I was asking about the last successful brood raised on the east ledge
in 2006.

2006 - three chicks, 1 female & 2 males - respectively, Radisson, the Little Daredevil & Bandit
- Radisson was incident free as I recall, returned the nestledge a couple of times in the first week then dropped right off the radar until she turned up in Edmonton last year.
- The Little Daredevil died less than 18 hours after fledging when he collided with the Kensington Building in the early ours of the morning following his early evening fledge.
- Bandit came to the ground and needed some vet care for a soft tissue injury; was re-released at the Hotel a week or two later and hung around the Hotel on and off until migration; haven't heard from him since
2007 - four chicks - 2 females, 2 males - respectively, Taku, Mistral, Chinook & Hurricane
Taku - had a neurological accident (stroke kind of) and half her brain died; affected her balance centre and she toppled from the nestbox to her death.
Mistral - half the size of her siblings, so far as we know one of, if not the, smallest female peregrine chick on record; ended up on the ground the day she fledge, uninjured but kept at rehab until Chinook ready for release; no reports since migration
Chinook - fledged almost a week before Mistral but 3-4 days (as I recall) after Hurricane and he was rescued by Transit staff; spent 7-10 days in rehab for soft tissue injury; Chinook & Mistral released at the same time; no reports since migration
Hurricane - fledged first, and a few days early as I recall; no injuries, no close calls; no reports since migration until this spring when he was identified in Grand Forks for one day only - no reports since.

Congratulations, Lara, on the safe arrival of Dugal!
Lara+Katya:
Hi folks. I haven't checked in for a while -- I see the fledge watch has started, and I just witnessed a camera angle change, which was cool. Ooo, a wing stretch just now, that was cool.
Just thought I'd let you know (sorry, off topic here) that my babe, Dugal (a younger brother for Katya) was born June 12, which is why I haven't been watching these babes. I'll have to bring Katya to take a look soon, though.
