West Winnipeg - 2015 / Ty & Beatrix
GCG:
Thanks for this video, TPC. Yes, she was hungry! ;D
Thanks, dupre501 for these incredible photos. I look forward to them.

We went for an evening drive and found Ty sitting on the NE corner. He moved to the NW corner and just sat there with the sun on his back. So we went for more of a drive. When we came back about an hour later, Ty was in the same place as when we left. But then there was some movement and Ty flew away. One of the chicks looked over the edge and started yelling. A moment later in flew Ty with a meal. He sort of paused above the corner, then flew away. "Come follow me". He turned around and came back to land on the corner and then give the food to the chicks.
The Peregrine Chick:
The older of the two chicks practically knocked Ty off the nestbox when she bolted up the ramp to relieve him of the food he'd brought. The younger chick didn't show any interest in the food and remained on the roof sitting in the sun and out of the wind.
Here's a video clip of the almost hit-n-run ... https://youtu.be/tYZnx8rsWBc :D
The Peregrine Chick:
Took me a few minutes to find them, but the girls are parked under the nestbox napping on cool rocks in the shade. Finally found them when the breeze started blowing their feathers around!!
GCG:
Apparently after only one season together as a couple, Beatrix and Ty are a good match. :)
