On 6.22.25 my father, brother and I visited this McKinley Park industrial building area to check on the Peregrine Falcon family at 5:50AM. (This is one of three posts for these Peregrine Falcons from this morning) We saw the adult male Peregrine (we call Morty) and the adult female (we call Bree) and both fledglings.
On this day my family meet Audrey and Jason to help spot these Peregrine Falcons for a WGN Chicago's Very Own segment. The episode aired on 6.26.25. -- Ima

| 6:29AM Fledgling chasing Morty for food. Note how much bigger the fledgling is than Morty. This fledgling is definitely female, and the two fledges have the same wingspan, so both of the fledges are female. |
