Looking at chick - not quite as fuzzy and white as ours might be at this age but it seems chick is in the growing-out-of-first-feathers stage and they all look a bit nude. Having said that chick looks pretty darn alert, strong and well-fed. I think tot could do well so long as something else unexpected doesn't happen. And that gravel will make it so much more comfortable for the chick - cooler as well I suspect, even in the Phoenix heat.

Mom was chasing his beak. ;D
Full up :)
Going into food coma
The Peregrine Chick:
From RCF's photos I realize that the chick is sitting on astroturf or that stiff indoor/outdoor carpeting. That cannot be comfortable for the wee thing ...
RCF:
I caught a feeding around 6:30pm. He got lots, plus Mom left and then came back to give him more. :-*
Big crop :)
Looks full
Mom came back to give him a little more.
