I was out of county until 5pm but meanwhile Tony and Dawn Grantham raced into town about 4.15 when they heard one juvenile was on the ground outside a nearby hairdresser's shop. The bird flew up into a tree and then very strongly upwards and away round the back of the Silk Mill. <br />When I was down there just now, one juv was on a pinnacle above the nest and two in the nest still plus both parents present too. So I'm sure these two fledgers will be fine. Christine and Cliff are spending the next few hours down there so they will keep an eye open and report back.<br />Nick B (DWT)Nick B (DWT)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-517644049991406941.post-26837654255341833932013-06-21T18:10:07.551+01:002013-06-21T18:10:07.551+01:00@ Nathan and @ Sara, just to put it right, the adu...@ Nathan and @ Sara, just to put it right, the adult birds have horizontal stripes and the juveniles have vertical streaks up and down. :-) everything else is right.<br /><br />PhoebeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-517644049991406941.post-3872588889454046992013-06-21T17:09:21.026+01:002013-06-21T17:09:21.026+01:00Fantastic Julie - I'm so pleased for you!

It is difficult to tell the difference between the juveniles and the adult birds sometimes, especially if the juveniles have their backs to the camera. If you look carefully you will see that the juveniles have a cream coloured tip at the end of their tails. The juveniles are also much browner than the adult birds. The stripes on the adult birds go up and down but on the juveniles they run horizontally across their body. I hope that helps!

I wasn't surprised that the mother peregrine was OK in the snow - peregrine falcons are very tough birds, but I was amazed that she kept those eggs warm and they hatched out.
