Almost Ready to Fly

The falcons are looking great, going through a growth spurt this last week.

If you haven't seen them in a few days, as I didn't over the weekend, the change is surprising. They are either sleeping or at the edge of the box, looking out, exercising their wings (and hitting each other-it's so crowded in there now). Any day now one or two of them will jump out of the box onto the ledge, then it gets real crazy. This coming Monday is the six-week point after their hatching. It's about this time they're going to leave the box. After that it's an empty next, literally.
