All in a pile this morning. Not too cold here today!

I did see one of the falcons (Trinity, I think) stop by to check on the kids about half an hour ago, but I wasn't quick enough to get a picture. These chicks seem to be doing remarkably well, considering how much time they've been spending in the nest alone.

Red Girl is feeding them something pretty big now -- maybe a mourning dove. I see dove and cuckoo feathers in the box.

She just finished and flew off with what was left of the meal. That feeding took a long time; maybe it was a pigeon.

The kids were doing a bit of exploring earlier today. (Of course now, they're back in their chick pile.)

They sure look about banding age, but I see no banding info
HELP

The chicks look huge compared to mom Red Girl.

FYI - I haven't heard anything about banding yet, Shepherd. Based on information from previous years, I would expect it to occur in about 1 to 1 1/2 weeks. See the "About the Wilmington Falcons" topic for more information about hatch, banding, and fledge dates.

There was a whole lot of moving going on earlier . . .

:gaaaaah: But I'm afraid the chicks couldn't read the sign "Stay Out of the Corners!"
