HOPEWELL CAPE , N.B. Hopewell Rocks Provincial Park opened for the season on Friday but this year, lucky visitors will have one extra attraction to check out besides the usual sights and sounds of the wind and waves. We’ve gone from seeing tiny little eggs under mom to seeing three beautiful chicks that are just growing, said Kevin Snair of Hopewell Rocks Provincial Park. A pair of peregrine falcons have called the park home for the last 13 years, but just nine days ago, they added to their family tree. The young one was not this white fluffy thing that I was expecting, Snair said. He was kind of wet and kind of less pretty? I don’t want to hurt his feelings, but he wasn’t a pretty chick!
