Pchemist:
Thanks for the info, Tracy.  We read somewhere that the chick had "fallen" (perhaps it was a failed fledge attempt) and was on a silo roof nearby.  We also saw/heard a lot of crane activity, but it's all quiet now. 

The male still in the box has nearly flown off a few times, but just goes to the ledge and flies back to the box.  So, I guess we're on fledge-watch!

The Peregrine Chick:
Note about fledging - once they go, they are gone and probably won't come back to the nestbox.  They may come near but generally don't come back and certainly not on a regular basis.  If a chick were injured or grounded, the Project might put the fledgling in the nestbox as a safe location, but it may be easier to release from another roof with easier access for the human rescuers ....

Pchemist:
Wow, just step on your sibling to get where you want to be!  don't worry about it, just climb right over.  Funny!

deedream:
oh he is back inside box again.. for how long probably not long.   ;D ;D Exciting.  

Pchemist:
whew!  safe flight back into the box, again!
