26, 2003: One of the two females at this nest in Montreal's port
area, this Peregrine Falcon chick was approximately 28 days old. She
was also very vocal, providing us an easy opportunity to check her mouth
lining, which was in good condition. The feathers on the upper
breast are somewhat matted from water lightly sprayed on the chicks during
banding to keep them cool.. (Photo by Marcel Gahbauer)
