Update from Liz on twitter about the youngest that tumbled out of the nest:

number 4 is doing fine. female banded named bobby, now being released with number with number 3, Sally on top of the hive

So that makes 3 females (Amelia, Sally and Bobby) and 1 male (Charlie) and I believe all have now been banded.

According to Liz, the names were picked by the volunteers with aviation legends as the inspiration.

Whew!!

Thanks for the link to the video of the 'accidental fledge.'

Ouch! She slapped her wing pretty hard going over that ledge...glad she's okay

Kudos to all the volunteers who are helping with the flight training rescues



I saw the parents stop by the nest box a few times after the 4th eyas fledged. Twice they went to the back to the sheltered half of the box, picked up 'leftovers' of previous meals, and flew off.

Hi there! I am home for awhile. Yes, the first three are aviation references, but the fourth is named after Bob Walters who is the guy that organizes this whole thing, he is from the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. It was a crazy day today!

I can imagine it's been crazy! *lol* Thanks for all the information you've been able to supply on your twitter and your blog Awesome that Bob got one named after him. Though I don't know if it should be taken as a good thing or bad thing that the one named after him is the one that fell out of the box *lol*

Again many many thanks for all the updates. I haven't had time to post but have been following.

I appreciate all the wonderful pictures and recaps.

Safe flying.

According to Liz's twitter

Charlie has been missing since about 4pm yesterday. The volunteers have been walking completely around the grounds. About an hour ago she said that one of the parents was sitting on the Key Bank building and that "maybe knows something we don't"

Here's hoping Charlie's okay wherever he is

Updates from Liz via Twitter:

Charlie "The Wanderer" has been found and is a-ok!
"The kids" have all been very active, and locations have included various buildings around the square. Sally appeared to have perhaps injured her wing in flight, but in subsequent flights seemed okay. She'll be assessed if/when she comes back to earth again. (She's already had one elevator ride today!)

Busy, busy day for all the falcon-watch volunteers! Photos/video links can be found on the Twitter feed on Liz's blog: slcfalcons.blogspot.com
