All 3 Juveniles Sighted

CPF Volunteer Reports:
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!
