The third girl fledged today. There seems to be a discrepancy depending on the person who saw it. Some say she fledged when she chased Mom off the ledge, and some think that she was dragged by Mom.

From Victor Hurley at the 367 Collins Watchers:

Two of the young Peregrine Falcons from 367 Collins have been found since fledging. One was caught alive that had managed to get itself behind a glass panel and couldn’t figure out how to get out, on a neighbouring building on 15 November. It was taken first to Melbourne Zoo and then to Healesville Sanctuary. After nearly a month of good food and exercise and rest and relaxation at Club Healesville it was released on 12th December at Point Park Docklands. Picture is of the bird at Healesville Sanctuary. There have been no further sightings of this individual.
The second was found dead on a neighbouring building on 10thDecember. It had head trauma and was underweight for its age and sex and had been dead for quite some time (weeks).
Independent of these two a third young (male) Peregrine Falcon was found on 15th November in a north western suburb of Melbourne and also taken to Healesville Sanctuary. This one was released on 8th December, resighted in North Melbourne about 9km away from the release site found feeding on a feral pigeon.
