It's now Wednesday the 20th and 2 days since I last visited the Peregrine site. 
Now with the the youngsters in their 10th week, they have started to develop a strong suspicion of humans which is exactly what they need to do as they step towards independence and then adulthood.
I am quit sure that they are still being fed by the adults at the moment  and even the other day I had a very exciting encounter when the adult tercel flew in with prey.  However, the youngsters spend a lot of time just sitting quietly on a few favoured perches now but at times they are away from the vicinity totally.
The adults now are never perched here near the nest ledge which is exactly the way it has been in previous years.
I have spent a couple of hours waiting for them to come in to the tree today and one did arrive and stayed for a just a short while but since then, nothing.  It's not been too tedious however, my iPod is full of my favourite music and there is something special about Beethoven and Tchaikovsky  when you are in such a peaceful place, perhaps this is what heaven will be like? 
I am sure that there will be more peregrine pictures to follow but I think that the opportunities are going to become less and less now.  At the end of the week I  am off to the island of  Minorca in the med for 7 days and on my return it will be interesting to see if they are still here.
