Radisson - 2011 / Ivy & Princess
lifo:
They seem to be very active for such a hot afternoon. Maybe the breeze is helping to keep them cool.
The Peregrine Chick:
1422h
Cade and Beatrix are napping, preening and hanging out on the nestbox edge right now ...
The Peregrine Chick:
As part of chick social interaction they nip at each other, more when they are all together in the nestbox but it usually continues until about migration.
lifo:
I have saved a kmz (Google Earth) file of the downtown area with place marks showing many of the places mentioned in the posts. If anyone would like one email me.

Don't know that there is an average. We usually see the adults (when the chicks aren't their responsibility anymore) hunting a couple of times a day. Do they catch something each time, that we can't say. Do know that in the couple of weeks just prior to leaving in the fall and just after arriving in the spring, all the birds do is hunt and sleep, lots of hunting and lots of sleeping.
