The kids are back on the wall in the corner where they spent last night.  The chicks will be 37 days old tomorrow so it's nice to see them moving so easily up and down from the roof to the walls and back again.  Great pre-fledging workouts.

Kids have a new patch of shade to enjoy - this one is behind (north side) of a skylight - about 10 feet from this morning's corner ...

Brooklyn is on the east wall with food and chick on skylight yelled but Dad wasn't going interested in sharing ... Brooklyn gave in, brought food over on roof, food stolen by off-camera chick that rushed in and skylight chick was out of luck ...

Two of the chicks are in the NE corner - one on the wall, the other lying down on a piece of flashing on the roof

I think the the little male spent the whole night on the wall, but can't be too sure.  He was on the wall after midnight.  I guess he likes to see what's on the other side of the bricks.  It just occurred to me they had a big wide view when they were in the wall nest box.

Not sure where the other two chicks are so have zoomed out a bit since this seems to be their favourite spot at the moment - and it is the place that the little male can access the wall most easily.
Well all three are now up on the wall!  The other two just joined the lil mr green band!   :)  they sure are great at exploring and growing up so fast!!!!!!!!  :-\

I can only assume someone who lives in the building (mts tower building) put this up to scare something away. It doesn't seem to bother the peregrines.  Maybe they were annoyed at the sounds of screaming peregrine parents the other day.  This is new and has only gone up in the last two days.  When we first looked we thought it was BatMan,   ;D  I think it's supposed to be an owl.
