Pchemist:
I'm sure Tracy will answer, but I found this peregine FAQ:  http://www2.ucsc.edu/scpbrg/faq.htm

in it this was a Q&A:

Q. Where do peregrines get their water?

A. Peregrines get all the water they need for survival directly from the food they eat.  However, they do like to drink water and bathe in it if it's available in a safe and secure location.

So, there you have it.   :D

Ya! - It doesn't seem moisture from meat would be enough anymore.. ???....Somebody please get them a nice bowl of cool water!  ;D ;D

Liz:
I guess I assumed they got what they needed from their food, but it is a good Q for days when it's really hot, and esp when they're getting bigger like these ones.  I can see hatchlings not needing any, but chicks are getting to be full-grown!
