Over the course of the last week, the four juvenile peregrines from the Utica nest continue to be seen daily. They are spending more time away from the canyon, but usually all of them return a few times a day. They have been spending most of their time testing their hunting abilities and on a few occasions they have been observed successfully securing prey. However, they still regularly pester their parents for food and their shrill begging calls are frequently heard echoing through Downtown. As they push to the outer boundaries of their parent’s territory, they have been able to experience different habitats and explore interactions with a wide variety of other species. They have been spending an increasing amount of time around the Mohawk River just lately. So far we have been very fortunate to be able to track them on some of their adventures and we hope to continue to as long as they remain in the region.
Great job Matt, as always. Love the pictures. Hope you enjoyed your time away. You were missed, thanks again, Kaye
We are missing the updates and pictures, we have come dependent on. No way to see them. Matt has been our eyes and ears since the nestlings fledged, and before. Please come back, I so want to see the pics and know what these young ones and parents up to. Miss you Matt, hope you are okay, thank you, Kaye
