Spending the night together, but only 2 instead of 3. Where is the little male? Is he allright. Where has he spent the night. So many juvi's have a very bad first fledge.
The 2 females are standing on the ledge training their wings. It takes them much longer to get ready for first flight. They have more growing to do than a male peregrine juvi. A juvi fledges when the time is right. They know for themselves when teh flight feathers have grown enough to make a first flight possible. The flight feathers are not fully grown when they do.
Later that day the little male would make a spectacular appearence flying in on the ledge and proved he's an excellent flyer indeed.
