Tuesday 2 June began with all four Pitt peregrine youngsters at the nest but their numbers fluctuated all morning as one or more left and returned. During the afternoon three left one by one. By the time Fledge Watch began at 4:30pm only Yellow was on camera. The rest were ledge walking.

These snapshots show how their day went, but only on falconcam. We have very few photos from the ground.

Fledge Watch officially ran from 4:30-5:30pm with a good turnout to watch the peregrines.

Falcon Camera season is over but the youngsters haven’t left. All four will learn to fly in the next couple of days.

At this point the only way to see the young Pitt peregrines is from Schenley Plaza. Click here for the Fledge Watch 2026 schedule.

p.s. Fledge Watch will end when all four have flown.
