--- Quote from: The Peregrine Chick on June 07, 2013, 13:24 ---With the tuppernest within camera range, was able to watch Jules feed the chicks four times this morning - 0611h, 0733h, 1103h and 1208h - she did a great job all the chicks got fed, including one that is obviously a day, maybe two behind the others. Not a problem at this age, they grow so rapidly that in another few days they will all be the same size and at the same stage of development.

Thank you for this update, TPC! Hope your tetanus shots are up to date. I appreciate what you do for the falcon phanatics. I look forward to photos of the WW falcons. <3

I'm very glad Jules doesn't see me as the "other woman", if that is what she does to defend her chicks, she'd massacre me for trying to take her Beau!! ;) ;D

The Peregrine Chick:
She's a great mom and doing all the things she's suppose to do. We know she is a captive-bred bird which, if she is an escaped falconry bird might mean that she's more, let's say "comfortable" standing up to a human because she's had a lot of hands-on interaction with them. If she was a captive-bred bird but purposely raised to be released to the wild, she would be like every other wild peregrine, she just grew up in a different environment from ours. There are lots of other females that won't get out of their nestboxes when banders come to "borrow" their chicks for a wee while, its nice to have one here too! And hopefully we will know her background someday.
