The babies have started fledging. One of them is on the roof of the building next door. :cool:

Guess I'll be dodging baby flying falcons on the walk to the car now. :eek:

Bad news. The first one to fledge (a maile) has an advanced case of trichomoniasis (probably from eating pigeons) and a mandible injury. He's at a rehabber now but the prognosis isn't good. :(

The other male and the female (nicknamed Screamer) are doing great and flying well. They even chased a few pigeons today. :cool:
