Saoirse:
Has Cade left again -- or is somebody back in the nestbox? Got distracted by a phone call and, all of a sudden, now there's only one bird on the ledge! Just can't take your eyes off them . . . ::)

--- End quote ---
Some birds look just like their parents in less than a year after hatching - T-Rex looked just like his parents when he returned 9 months after hatching. Others retain elements of their juvenile plumage, occasionally some breast/belly streaks remain a bit visible but usually its dark brown feathers amid the dark slate grey/black feathers on their back and wings.
And you are all welcome, being able to "share" the peregrines via the webcam does involve lots of work but its worth it 99.9% of the time. Its at 2am when I'm still working that the last 0.1% makes me question my sanity ;)
