Here's a good picture of the little cutie on the ledge,
if you can't see it, I'll post tomorrow!

From FB (with the pic):
It was quite an afternoon for the Phoenix peregrines. While its parents were out foraging, the peregrine chick climbed up onto the ledge of the box and jumped down to another small ledge a few inches below. The chick was able to make its way back into the box and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Now that the chick has figured out how to get down there, it’s likely to try this again… being a Peregrine–Cam fan is not for the faint of heart

I have watched off and on today. At one point the cam did not work and watchers were fearing the worst with the Phoenix heat. This intrepid little one just was out taking a stroll. YIKES! :nervous:

At least he knows how to get back to the box.

I sure am glad the cam doesn't pan to that ledge (or is that how they got the pic?)...I would be a nervous wreck watching him/her walk that thing...its not wide AT ALL!!!

I AM happy to report the little one is currently in the box..

This was earlier..

Someone is reporting it fell and previous reports said it jumped. I don't know. I do not see it, but I can hear it moving around! :15heartbeat:

I think they can hear it in Nevada LOL! But serious I think it might be cooler out in the ledge compared to that box.

She must not be in the box, at least I dont see her.
May have spent the night on the cool ledge.
Yeah they heard her 2 states away - hahahaha! :egglaugh":

Rockette had been eyeing going down on the ledge for 2 days.
COME ON, ladies - she is a FALCON!!
They are raised on cliffs! This is - NORMAL!

This is the pic that was posted on FB, I was watching when the cam did pan (?) there... and right after that, Mom stared at the cam... interesting!?

2:22am- Box looks empty now - little one is either on the ledge sleeping or hiding in the box, near the front...

I can hear her shuffling around out there.
Would YOU wanna go back in that box?

Noisy little bugger! Parent brought prey into box to coax the little one... Chick fussed and screamed, made a few attempts to hop in (seemed impatient and hungry), so parent feeds him like this:

Little one squealing the whole time!

Early breakfast with Dad..apparently its a tad more difficult getting INTO the box than getting out..

They lowered the cam a tad more..

I left the cam on through the night and of course when daylight approached Phoenix, the lil one started screaming - all off cam. When I started watching, no baby in sight, just screaming. Dad arrived with food, as shown in Bonbon's pic and that got her moving up. The cam operator moved the cam so we could see her new ledge.
She has eaten and is now in a food coma. :flirty:

All is quiet on the western front!

Love all these reports! Thank you! I kinda think that with the heat in the nestbox, she's better off outside the box (providing she's in the shade). :smile:
