Dad being pursued by one of the young, who screeches while tagging along. The fact that the adult male brought most of the food to the nest site wasn't lost on the young, who would start calling whenever they heard or saw him coming their way. Much of his hunting was done from a perch on the old Central High School clock tower, about two blocks away from the nest site. One of the young males began to accompany him to this site nearly as soon as it could fly. By the end of the first week of flight, all of the young would venture off to this "distant" location.
