Good luck with the banding tomorrow, TPC!  It must be an awesome thing to have those little darlings in your hands, even though you risk losing a bit of flesh by so doing! ::)

The Peregrine Chick:
Little darlings are all dried out and fluffed up again after the rain.  With the current view, you can see that their white fuzz isn't as "all-over" as it used to be.  At this stage of the game they are between 22 and 24 days old - more than half-way to fledging ... and one day away from getting their bling.  Must admit, banding sometimes makes me think of a teenager getting a tattoo.  They come home to Mom and Dad with something unexpected and something one just can't hide ...   ;D

That's exactly what I thought when I booted up the cam a few minutes ago!  I swear they grew during that rain storm last night!!!

LOL Sami!

Thanks for the video rcf!  I wasn't able to view the cam yesterday evening, but when I heard on the car radio that it was raining (again) in Brandon, my thoughts immediately went to our little used-to-being-soggy family. :-*
