6/7/2010 :: Fledgling Update The two males fledged yesterday from the ledge. From all accounts, the white banded male fledged first at around 9 AM. The red banded fledge took his first flight later in the afternoon. They ended up on the ground, were rescued and placed on the roof of the building. On their second attempt they landed on low rooftops near the Rachel Carson Building from which they will try again. The goal for the fledglings now will be to return to the ledge. There are two teams of watchers keeping an eye on them.
The blue banded male taken for treatment has recovered to the extent the rehabilitator would like to return him to the ledge soon. Thanks to the weekend watch and rescue crew for rescuing the fledglings on their first flight and briefing DEP staff on these happenings this morning.
Quello con l'anello bianco è volato alle 9 circa, quello rosso nel pomeriggio.
Sono finiti a terra e recuperati e rimessi sul tetto. Al secondo tentativo sono finiti sui tetti bassi vicini. Ci sono due squadre di osservatori che li stanno tenendo d'occhio.
