This brood of four female falcons were officially fledging age (that is, 6 weeks old) on June 9th.\u00a0 They disappeared on that date and haven’t been on camera since then.\u00a0 But they didn’t go far:\u00a0 for a couple of days, their heads and\/or wings could be seen occasionally as they flapped on the ledge that is just one level below the roof, where the cameras cannot view.\u00a0 This isn’t unusual and happens every season.\u00a0 What’s unusual, however, is they didn’t just “pop” back up to nest level within days!\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Union County Trailside staff went out to observe from the ground, and saw all four fledglings — flying!  As a group, the fledglings have been exploring other areas of the courthouse and nearby buildings.  The adults bring food wherever the youngsters are, so all that action has been away from the usual nest-level roof.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know we’re all anxious to see them and the fun flight-learning antics that come with new flyers.  We hope they will find their way back to the highest point in the city and back on camera!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
