Windsor's Breeding Birds

The number of birds that breed in Windsor becomes very clear at this time of year as tons of fledgling (recently left the nest) birds can be seen everywhere! Young European Starlings can be seen everywhere, this year's Canada Geese offspring are now teenagers, the Ambassador Bridge Peregrine Falcons have several chicks (reports of 5), and there is a new batch of American Robin and House Finch fledglings outside my office window. 

Two Robin siblings

Hopefully photos to come of the Peregrine Falcon chicks!
