The San Jose peregrine chick (eyas) named Lucia went to hop up on the low ledge a few days ago, overshot, and hopped clean over the thing like she’d jumped on a pogo stick. She was rescued and taken up to the roof. Two days later she was rescued again, but really really really wanted to be several floors below with her three sisters on the HVAC ledge.

Today that’s where the food was when she was hungry and she made it happen. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one manage to float back down to the nest area, much less one that’s not actually flying yet, but she did it!
