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.

RCF:


He didn't want any more.  :)



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.
