A poster said on another group that he thought the first one had fledged, but all 4 made an appearance just now. The window closest to the cam was where the 4th one is--he's fluffing out his tailfeathers now and then. Then of course is the 3rd one in the window directly behind the other 2! :teehee:

The cam is on the other side now. One member of the group in 367 Collins St. posted a message showing all 4 of the kids still there 3 hours ago. :pumpkincat:

Saw elsewhere one of the fledges was found down and in distress. It was taken to Wildlife Victoria. Possibly a serious concussion. It is unable to right itself. They will update when able.

I saw that the fledgling above did pass overnight. The remaining juvie fledged this morning their time. Hope the remaining 3 stay safe and do well. Am surprised they are turning the cams off for the season.

Thanks for the info, SWINWK. :sorrow:

According to the Facebook website, they aren't turning the cam off. There's a problem with the cam. Hopefully, the cam problem will solved this season! :gobble:

Thanks, I did not realize that or rather that's not how I read that last paragraph. Hopefully the guy across the street will catch any juvies that return to the ledge with his setup.

I read the info from Victor Hurley and it says they have advised the "cam people" to turn the cam off. I don't know if they realize what enjoyment we get when the birds fledge and come back. :girlsad3:

Here's a funny video with the Stepdad adjusting to life with little one's from early October, but recently released by gemini star (You may have to start it at the beginning):

"Who says step-dads don't take interest? - 367 Collins Falcons"

A post from Victor Hurley on the 367 Collins group, concerning a 367 Collins juvie: :10sum:

Collins Street, Melbourne on Friday 2nd December, 2022. It was taken to Melbourne Zoo and quickly recovered from its injuries and was released in parklands close to Melbourne a few days later. It was last seen flying towards Melbourne's CBD.
Beyond the concussion and temporary inability to fly it was in good physical condition (weight 685gm, wing length 285mm). The measurements confirm it was a male and most likely the one male fledgling from 367 Collins this year.
A lucky find and good outcome for this individual.
I thought people on this group mihgt be interested to know.
See you all next August.
