Peregrine Falcon Parental Behavior (1 Viewer)

Now that all five of the Peregrines that I am observing have fledged, I have only seen three of these siblings flying under the care of their mother, but there were five young in the nest box. It makes me wonder if the father is raising the other two elsewhere. Anyone know if there is a precedent for that kind of parental behavior among peregrines?

(Unfortunately I was not around the moment that they all left the nest box; they left earlier this year--about 41 days after hatching).
