LITTLE PIGGIES
They have been feed 3 times {big meals at that} in less than 4 hours
The Peregrine Chick:
From the camera angle, you can definitely see they have clear skies in at least one directrion!
Pchemist:
looking from the cam, other than "too early" this looks like a good place to fledge from - lots of "down" to glide and no buildings really close during that first time, but roofs to glide to before they learn to go up.
TPC, what do you think?
The Peregrine Chick:
Keep in mind that peregrine chicks don't fall - that would be an evolutionary disaster for a cliff-nesting species. The chicks can be injured during fledging - too early, bad weather, poor flight decisions, buildings - but they don't "fall". :D

The only bad thing here is when I ask Bob about under the ledge he said there was nothing but the drop straight down, but there has never been any kind of bad or fatal injury that he remembers in all the time he has been at this box from a fall bushes are below too
