Radisson - 2011 / Ivy & Princess
cadria:
It is just after 3:30 and there are two falcons. I am presuming that Beatrix is the one on the edge of nest box and Cade is the other falcon?? I wonder why she doesn't go down on the ledge with him. Lots of room to wander around. Guess she is a bit more cautious. ;)
The Peregrine Chick:
Cade - July 8 @ 0544h
Our very (very) early bird Fledgewatchers reported that Cade took the leap and got back to the nestsite. He didn't make on the first try but did on the second after a long sweeping fly around the Air Canada Building, then the Hydro Building which was perfect because it enabled him to gain altitude which he needed to get up to the nestledge. It was the long way there, but the only safe way to get from the his perch on the Rogers Building to the Radisson nestsite.
He hung out with Beatrix in the box for most of the morning, then hoppped down and ran along the ledge to the end where he has had cool concrete and a breeze to help him through the sunny afternoon thus far ...
The Peregrine Chick:
Cade - July 7
Cade had lots of company yesterday, the Fledgewatchers were watching over him like a new baby! He spent the day on the Rogers Building, 1/2 block west of the Hotel. It was hot, so most of it was spent in the shade keeping cool, but every so often he would appear on the edge and look longingly at the nestbox and Beatrix waiting (impatiently) for him to return.

Glad Carson is doing well.
Maybe today is jsut a catch up on gossip day for Bea and her brother. The longer Bea stays put the stronger I hope she is because we hen she fledges her brother is going to want to play.
That is what happened in Edmonton 2 years ago, Froona and REd boy were so close and he had already been flying but came back at night with Froona. As soon as she took off he wanted to play tag. :-* :-* A few mail biting moments.
Saoirse:
"Doing great" is great to hear! In the last couple of years, I think we've been spoiled -- when one of the birds went into rehab after a mishap, it was a brief stay and then back to the sky. It'll be good to see Carson join his siblings, as soon as he's fit.
