Sad to see now 2 males didn't make it through the fledge this week, one here and one at Columbus. I was hoping that the male Peregrine population might increase this year.

Whew!!! Thanks for the report SGB!!!!

well, well, well...little Baby Blue girl finally fledged this afternoon...watchers reported a strong flight, but she chose one of the worse places to attempt to land...the church steeple (mom's perch). Needless to say, she didn't make it, but recovered nicely...all 4 girls present and accounted for as the sun set...

Very sad news for Little White Boy :'(
Very heartbreaking...the only good thing to this sad news is that he was found, didn't need to suffer and didn't die alone....

Update for Harrisburg...Well, our worse fears were realized yesterday...Little White Boy was found. He had sustained horrific injuries to both legs and was Euthanized yesterday afternoon...we are just heartsick...We have many forum members at BCAW who are fledge watchers for this nest, and it was a very rough day for them all...Some of them had to carry that knowledge with them until DEP made the announcement...
Blue remains on the ledge and has yet to fledge...she has been visited by at least Green (that we know of)...Green, Yellow, Red girls appear to be flying well, tho' they have had several mishaps, with a few requiring rescue...but this hasn't stopped them...they haven't remained very long on the roof when placed there after rescue...and a couple of them have found Mom and Lil' Dad's food cache (sneaky girls). there is talk of extending fledgewatch (it was to end June 14) until Blue fledges...no final word on that yet...
That's all for now...
