Do Falcons really fledge at 5 weeks?

For some reason, I think they fledge at around 40 days. Reenie is here--I'm sure she could answer that question...Reenie?

Thanks, Carly!

OMG - What happened here? I just arrived home after an early dinner and got logged in, but I never expected to see the triplets still in the nest. Did Alcoa decide not to band or did they just delay it again?

P.S. I can't believe the number of new posts here . . . I think it will take me at least an hour to catch up on all I missed.

Catbird, they postponed the banding until tomorrow (same time) because of high winds...

Hot off the presses!!!

Due to a forecast of high winds, the banding has been rescheduled until tomorrow (Thursday November 5, 2009) at 10am Australian EDST. Hopefully the weather will be kind as this will be our last opportunity to band our three chicks. Any longer and there will be an increased risk that the chicks may attempt flight when the researchers approach the nest box.

I'm going to take a break, as I haven't even changed clothes from work! Think I'll just put my jammies on!

Be back later! I hope they get some food soon!

Now that there are only a few of us here, I'm going to lock this topic. Please go to November, Part II to continue your posts! Thx!

I can't wait til next Spring either, Carly! I'm 10 minutes away from the Harrisburg nest, so I go down several evenings a week to see the juvies!
