White puffball chicks…

The north side peregrine chicks are flying well now, traversing the Rock face from north to south. Landings are a little shaky, but in a week or two, they will have them down pat!

Today at 9:15AM, we got our first glimpse the two white puffball chicks on the south side of Morro Rock. They appear to be about 23 to 24 days old. They stood at the mouth of the “diving board” eyrie for a few minutes, then went back out of sight. Four of us spent another six hours and saw nothing of the chicks.

Tomorrow is another day. You can bet I’ll be there!

Happy trails, Bob
