A bit before 8:30, one of the juvies flew in to the column. Less than a minute later Little Dad made a food drop. The juvie mantled it for a while before starting to eat. About five minutes later the second juvie arrived, and they worked on the prey together for a bit, but then the second juvie took it and polished it off. i suspect the first juvie was White. Looks like they're both in for the night.

Am seeing an empty ledge right now, but there is a falcon over on the corner of the U Building's roof. I'm going to out almost all day today.

Don't know how long they've been there, but there are two VERY warm juvies at the end of the ledge right now. Wings stuck out and trying to stay cool.

One HOT juvie has been sitting for a while on the ledge between the stick and the column. It's really hot here today, like 92 degrees. Tomorrow is to be a tad warmer.

Not surprised to find an empty ledge this morning. There's a falcon over on the corner of the U Building roof again, and I would suspect it's Niecey. She sits there often.

Got home to tune in to see a very warm juvie on the stick part of the ledge. Watched for about 10 seconds and the juvie flew off. Hoping to get downtown tonight despite the heat.

The blue-banded #HbgFalcon male is doing really great and should be released back on the building this week!

Spent about an hour and a half downtown tonight. One of the juvies has found the stash over in front of the U Building. Saw only one juvie for quite a while. One of them is roosting on the 21st floor louver ledge behind 333. The second juvie was flying around after Little Dad for a little bit. Too hot for that kind of thing. Pretty sure the second juvie was on the corner of the U Building's roof when i left. Would have liked to see where he went for the night, but wanted to get home before dark. And rest assured, there will be people keeping their eyes on Blue when he returns.

At 11 a.m. released blue band #HbgFalcon male on building. Flying great! Adults know his location and will provide prey & hunting lessons.



I GOT TO SEE HIM CIRCLING OVER OUR BLDG A COUPLE OF TIMES AND SOARING SOME TOO IN THE WINDS, HE LOOKED REALLY GOOD :-) SO HAPPY HE'S BACK!

Glad to read Blue is doing well. Will be heading downtown in about an hour for the night watch. It's 95 degrees here with a slight breeze and fortunately not real humid.

Got downtown a little before 4:00. Some complete stranger flagged me down to let me know that one of our falcons was sitting on a window ledge in the small alley next to the 5th Street Garage. Nobody saw him land there, so we don't know for sure how long he was there. Several of us watched him for a LONG time. To make a long story short, Blue has been safely rescued. I have no further details.
