Radisson - 2011 / Ivy & Princess
susha:
My first view of the Radisson family and there's little Mr. Smarty-Pants on the nest-edge, as cocky as can be, even stretching easily and sitting as comfortably as if he's been up there his whole life. I can't tell which boy it is, but he's looking good!
RCF:
One of the boys looks like he may jump down to the long ledge that runs below the baffles............... or maybe not. Watch Beatrix also, she's kissing her brother on the other side. :-*

The Peregrine Chick:
Dennis thinks the first fledge at the Radisson will be on the July 5th. Didn't tell me why, but that's what he thinks.
The Radisson hatches were: May 23th, May 24th (x2) and May 26th. So on July 5th, the chicks will be 43, 42 and 40 days old. Not bad guesses for first fledges. And given that there is one week until the 5th, the kids are going to need to do a whole lot of flapping and wingercizing to be ready for those dates.
I'm not sure when this bunch will go. They seem small enough to go as early as July 1st, but I don't see the "itch" yet. They seem quite serene to sit on the lanai (as Ellie calls it) rather than "itching" to follow their parents ... so perhaps Dennis is right and this little band of adventurers will take their time before setting out ...
Jo:
Food drop a few minutes ago. Lots of screaming & parent took off.
5:40pm one of the boys up on the ledge - He's on the part that is up against the side of the building (top right corner of screen)
We have a boy picking at the food deliver (bottom corner), another watching the world and a young lady laying down in the shade of the ledge.
5:44pm down off the ledge
Ellie:
They still have those cute "puffaloons" though!
