CA / San Jose - 2009-15
Kinderchick:
According to the website, although there were a few fledging mishaps here, all 4 fledglings survived and were spotted flying well, in the vicinity of City Hall for a month or more after fledging. :)
SusanE:
Thanks for posting those numbers, Kinderchick. I will add that the VID bands are solid black. (I used to think only Canadian falcons received solid black bands . . . so I'm learning. :) )
Kinderchick:
Sounds as if Cobalt made an "accidental" fledge here, but he seems to be okay. Must have been after all of the wingersizing I was watching. ;)
More info from this nestsite...

Kinderchick:
Haven't been to this nest site for awhile. I only see 2 chicks and they are sitting on the nestledge with all of their flight feathers, looking rarin' to go! Some very active wingersizing going on with one of these guys. Also found a great video of 2 of the juvies, Thunder, in the nestbox and Cobalt, up on the nestledge, doing a nice stretch to show of his band number, 48/D... :D

Kinderchick:
All 4 chicks are huddled together in the back left corner of the nestbox right now. Waiting for a feeding, I imagine. :)
