Thursday it was reported that at least one adult was in the nest vicinity.
Friday, the two adults were spotted south of the nest ledge, and at the same time cries were heard from what might be Mascota at the north set of buildings.
Reported by Mathew Rossi, Marlene, Marlyne.
While walking past 18 King St. this afternoon, both adults were in view,on the ledges of the nest building, sitting in the shade.

Word was received this evening from Mark Heaton (MNR) that sometime this morning, again at the airport, Vega (28 over Y) suffered a fatal building collision. Vega had been spotted in recent days near the nest, but obviously found his way further abroad.
At least one adult was spotted in the nest vicinity today, monitoring will continue.
I was watching another set of storm clouds roll into the downtown core and noticed a juvie sitting on one of the knobs of the spire!
Haven’t seen a juvie in a while.
The pair returned about 4:30 to the ledge and I managed to snap this photo via the Osler cam.

Once again while resetting the camera, Tiago was sitting in the nest tray, while Rhea Mae was having a quick bite to eat on the “H” of the north facing letters of the Hilton.
This morning walking past the King St. nest, both adults were in view. They are seen daily in the area, not sure about the juvies. Perhaps they are around at different times.
As I approached the south side of the Hotel, I saw two peregrines in flight in the area of Bay and Richmond. I couldn’t tell if they were juvies or not.
After resetting the nest camera, I took a quick peek on the nest ledge and Tiago was there for a few minutes.
All 3 kids here this morning!! Just confirmed with my binoculars, one on the nest ledge, one the next ledge over and Perry on the roof ledge.There was no sign of mom and dad this morning yet,but I saw them yesterday. It’s the first time I’ve seen all 3 kids together for awhile, usually I see 2 at a time or 1 on the ADP sign.
On Tuesday I was out back on Aberfoyle and all of a sudden I heard a Peregrine alarm calling. It was Screech and she came flying to the building and started circling it just like mom or dad used to do and was alarming for about 5 minutes.I couldn’t figure out if someone had stepped out onto the roof or not but must have been because no other birds were visible. She was being extremely territorial though - was interesting to see and finally she calmed down and went to the nest box to stand guard. She’s huge now, massive chest - you can see it from the ground and honestly if not for the brown chest I’d swear it was mom - that’s how big she is!
Its so good to see all 3 have made it this far!
