Radisson - 2008 / Trey & Princess
The Peregrine Chick:
Since Trey will have trouble keeping the chicks covered (they are getting too big now), she will probably be doing most of the brooding, particularly if the weather turns rainy as it is forecasted to over the 24 hours. Trey will probably either feed the chicks when the time comes or he'll be hunting for the whole family and dropping off food for Princess to feed the chicks and some for Princess herself. It will be interesting to see how necessity changes their routine ...

Yeah I saw that Tracy, Princess finishing off what was left of lunch. She was certainly doing some head bobbing that's for sure. She sure is low to the nest as she can get and face in the gravel too. She's very dedicated to these chicks.
Marie:
Just watched the chicks having lunch....it's 2:30 here on the island.
Wow they are growing so fast...haven't really seen them in a few days.
Pincess & Trey are very very good parents........very attentive and protective.
Hope the wind calms down soon!!!!!
Cheers
Marie
The Peregrine Chick:
Ooooo, very cool. Princess just ate the tail end of the meal - bones, feathers, whatever so that she wouldn't have to leave the nest. Just yumped it down (there was some head-bobbing to help it go down) then moved over the chicks. And there is nary a trace of the meal left on the gravel! That will be a heck of a pellet when she finally yaks it up! :o

ooopss it was Mum feeding the kids, she's got the kids tucked under her again and her body is facing the wall to the left and the wind is blowing against the length of her body at this point.
