In which there are four young kestrels in their city centre nest

The eldest of the four kestrels flew for the first time earlier today. These screenshots from the Worcester peregrines webcam are from a 10 minute period. I decided not to show you the one with the large pigeon leg + foot sticking straight out of the eldest fledgling's beak. /red in beak and claw

Yes!

Only the third, and youngest survivor from the brood, left to fly now. ::makes superstitious warding gestures::
