The Utica Peregrine Nestlings have all fledged now, but they continue to visit their nest box and continue to be fed there. This is different behavior than seen in the previous years. In terms of their flying: Their skill levels are gradually increasing. They are making miscalculations – primarily when landing, but this is all to be expected at this stage. Overall they are doing very well. Fledge Watch will continue through this early stage to insure that if they do get into real trouble, someone will be on hand to provide assistance if necessary. Please come down if you are able! It’s the best airshow in the Mohawk Valley
Great follow up yesterday, and good photos, too. I am so glad Spirit fledged Thurs. I would like to think it was my pep talk that convinced her. You can not let brothers get anything over on you. Wish I could be there to see these magnificent raptors. Thank you Matt for bringing this to us, I am going to be missing these chicks. Thanks again!!
