Radisson - 2016 / Smiley & Princess
sparkster:
Good news that you have located the chicks, TPC! ;D It was difficult a couple of years ago when the chicks weren't able to be found after they left the nest and we could only hope that they were ok. I hope these guys cooperate with our wishes and hang around the vicinity of the Radisson or, preferably, return to the ledge for visits.

They appear to be doing very well - the Alt Hotel (according to what I can find) is 20 storeys high, and if they can come and go from that height then they have figured out how to use their wings to go up as well as away and have figured out how to use the lift that forms next to buildings to land on the top.
Whether or not they will return to the nestbox - I wouldn't, its a mess! but the ledge might be of more interest - particularly as it is concrete so cooler and in the shade for part of the day. But Smiley's and Princess' other kids (Vimy & Chappell) never did return, so we will just have to wait and see.

1155h - three chicks back at the Alt Hotel ... not sure they will stay long but who knows if they have somewhere they want to go to ...
The Peregrine Chick:
Just as an FYI - these chicks are 44 and 45 days old as of today.
