Logan - 2014 / Hart & Jolicoeur
The Peregrine Chick:
It looks like at least one more chick has fledged - one of the females. Yesterday got a call about and "injured" bird and went down to check it out. Bird was fine, just perched on a fence out of the way. I decided to see if I could get close to it - either to retrieve it or for it to fly. She showed me her band (yellow tape) so I knew it was Tory and she flew just fine. Gained some altitude, aborted a landing on a tree branch and off she went to another rooftop nearby. Check to make sure she was fine, and she was and she had lots of options and space for her next hop and that was all there was to do for her :)
No calls since, so assume all is fine because "no news is good news" ... ;)
The Peregrine Chick:
Reports from the Logan site today is that the first of the chicks has fledged and has been mastering the building to building hop! This is excellent. These chicks all appear to have hatched within about 48 hours of each other so they are only 39/40 days old - not too young for the males or females and none of them are very large so hopefully they will do as well as their half-siblings last year!

I’m lovin the names here TPC,
enjoyed reading how you arrived at them!
The Peregrine Chick:
The Logan chicks are getting stronger - they have been hopping up on the wall around their nestsite but they have a week or more before they are ready to go. Looking at notes from last year, they are doing exactly what their older sibs did - lots of up/down and running around. Hopefully they will do as well as their cousins out in Brandon seem to be doing!
