[Father’s Day update: Only one left in the box! Go here for ASRI Peregrine Cam. Give a donation in honor of Dad.]
I have yet to catch a feeding time with these two but clearly they are eating. The back of the box is much cleaner than in past years — I suspect because there are only two of them. Their preferred method of relieving themselves seems to be backing up towards the open side and letting it rip — this I never seem to miss — maneuvering to the front must be harder when it’s crowded. (The picture below shows what they looked like just ten days ago. Things happen quickly at this stage.)
Peter Green of Providence Raptors has posted a video from Brockton where they have a clutch five healthy chicks, a rarity. Three to four is typical.
