AB / Edmonton - Bell Tower - 2012-17

I watched that at .25 speed and was amazed at how quickly Dr Court accomplished that retrieval.

The last hatched/fourth chick was removed from the nest today.

This is posted on the cam page.
Chick update: The smallest chick wasn't doing well, so Dr. Gordon Court retrieved it this morning, (June 8th) and is caring for it right now. The size difference between the chicks was just too much and it was not getting enough food. Dr. Court is an internationally respected peregrine expert, so the chick is in the best possible hands. The egg was removed as well because it's definitely not going to hatch. We'll find out more and update everyone on the chick's progress when we know more.

Wow fine dining for the chicks at the Bell Tower ... Radisson kids generally don't get shorebirds until they are closer to banding age ...

thanks for ID RCF . We could not figure it out. I have never seen one of those here

Thanks for posting these videos, bev. And you sure do know your PF fine dining birds, RCF! Most of the time, all I recognize is pigeon kraft dinner.
