Wings



Kids looking out to see why adult is making a racket over something

They are such exquisite creatures with such beautiful coloring...

The chicks are five weeks old this weekend and will fledge any day now They're spending a lot of time exercising wings and look so ready to fly.

It would be nice if a fledge watch group was there to watch out for them during their first days learning to fly. Unfortunately, there is no fledge watch for these beautiful falcon chicks





They now have that proud bearing of the adults.

Mid-afternoon feeding. They take one's breath away
