Pchemist, they've been a busy bunch scolding mom or dad, whichever, for not bringing them food when they want it.
Pchemist:
Whoa - just got back to hotel and opened up the cam. There was a chick >< this close to the lens! startling. :o
The Peregrine Chick:
Down and dirty way of identifying the males chicks from the females - the male chicks will have less white fuzz on them. The males will be ready to fly 7-10 days before the females and by that time they will have a bit of fuzz on their heads, but the females will still have big patches (relatively speaking) of white on them still.

Adult looks to the camera, "Somebody help me pleasssssssssseeeee?"

One of the parents arrived with nooooooooooo food and the youngins were none to happy either, pecking at the adult beak hoping for food. The parent had enough of the screaming youngins that they left the nestbox and are now facing away perched on the beams extending out from the box.
