I’d guess the chicks are going on two weeks old, so four more weeks to go on the ledge…? Mom is on her favorite perch about twenty feet away, waiting for a food delivery.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Taughannock Peregrines?
The little Peregrine chicks are fine - their dense down is just the same color as the splattered ledge, so if they’re sleeping in a pile you might miss them. The adults are around too. -Geo > On May 4, 2023, at 5:41 AM, Dave Nutter wrote: > > Yesterday afternoon (3 May) about 5:15pm, Ann Mitchell & I stopped on Gorge > Rd and scoped across Taughannock gorge, and the Peregrines’ nest ledge > appeared empty.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Taughannock Peregrines
Thank you for the tip—we saw a peregrine falcon just where you described today. It sat on the snag for several minutes, then pooped and flew off. The white on the cliff below seems to indicate that is a favorite spot.

[cayugabirds-l] Taughannock Peregrines
There was deep slush everywhere at my house yesterday, and it was hard work for my elderly dog to struggle through, so I took her for a long leisurely walk at Taughannock Point. There was a Snow Goose at the north point that had an injured wing. It paddled north toward Frontenac, forestalling a capture attempt by park staff. Before heading home I stopped at the dirt turnout along Gorge Road around 5:15 pm to look across the gorge at the cliff just below the overlook Visitors Center. As I watched, an adult Peregrine flew to a snag that hangs downward from the cliff-top. A minute later, the second adult flew in and settled on a ledge just behind the snag. -Geo -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --

Suan Can the peregrine Erie be seen from the overlook? Is there a trail to possibly catch a sighting or other recommendations? I’m meeting a friend to look for the peregrines tomorrow.

[cayugabirds-l] Taughannock Peregrines
Two Thursdays ago (June 10) I happened to be up in T'burg, so stopped by to check out the Taughannock Peregrines. I found three nestlings in their eyrie playing with their food and flapping their wings as if ready to fledge. Two days later, on Saturday June 12, I ran across Mark Chao and Miyoku in T'burg, and together we went looking only to find the ledge empty. After some waiting we saw one then several peregrines soaring around the gorge, including the fledglings. Two of them eventually perched on a snag on the same side of the gorge as we were, and through a window in the foliage we were afforded some fantastic naked-eye views as they sat and preened.
