Linder:
Watching the Brandon cam and the boys are sleeping in the weed patch or what's left of it. Nice and cool in the shade and quite breezy there as well.

I completely agree Kinder chick RCF seems to be getting better all the time ;D

--- Quote from: The Peregrine Chick on July 13, 2011, 08:57 ---Rose & RCF can confirm this, but Kenzie dropped down to the roof before she officially fledged off the building last year as I recall so just having the wall box doesn't mean that some/many haven't had the roof to practice flying on over the years. The roof is large and it has been common over the years for chicks to go for the roof on their "first" flights - not really a first flight until they have left the building, but a good alternative for a chick who isn't sure if this flying thing is really what they want to be doing!

Yes, Kenzie spent about a week on the lower roof before she officially fledged to a nearby building. I also noticed from last year and the year before the chicks like to hang out on the communications tower across the street.

Yes, I would certainly agree with that. :) Been wonderful to have a camera on them, wherever they are, even if we aren't able to locate them all of the time... Ah, there is one now, perched on a skylight, preening. 8) Don't know which one, though. :-[ Lots of "poop-art" on that skylight. Must be a favourite spot. ;)
RCF:
Rosser was on the southeast pillar this morning yelling very loudly about something. He flew off the pillar to the roof floor before I left at 6:45 am. I have pics, but that will have to wait until after 4pm.
