Radisson - 2016 / Smiley & Princess
susha:
Wonderful to be able to see them all together again! Thanks for finding them, TPC! This downtown hotel was an annoyance to the birds while it was being built, if I recall correctly and now it seems, is a perfect second stage fledging platform :)
The Peregrine Chick:
1025h - found the kids - they are fine. They are all together again on the roof of the Alt Hotel. Two are on the north side and the third is lying down on the eastside. They have managed to stay up at the 20 storey mark for the last 24-72 hours which is great - and they are all back together. Alt Hotel has a nice roof for them, I can see why they like it (good for fledging, not so for nesting). Wide wall around the edge and metal which can make it warm to sleep on. Buildings around are lower or about the same height and north and south there are clear flight routes for long distances and they can circle around and gain altitude. And they can see the nestsite and the Hydro Building which is where the adults like to sit.
The Peregrine Chick:
All quiet at the nestbox and on the nestledge today ... there was a flyby the nestbox by two birds, or one bird twice, just before 2000h ... looked more consistently dark than the adults (no flashes of light/white) but it was a fast flyby ...
GCG:
Thanks for the cam view showing the chick(s). :)

Perhaps she's rethinking her fledge and misses the shade.

There is shade on the roof so probably not that :D - but her father is on the Hydro building at the moment and for all I know, Cora and Dixon are maybe just as close - she will want to get to someone after being alone in the nestbox for a couple of days ...
