No it could not.
Grey and white chest - ours are black and white, no grey in sight. Probably something like a Coopers Hawk though to be honest, it was likely a crow, they are omnivores, raptors like the falcons and Coopers Hawks are carnivores, that doesn't mean they eat meat, it means they kill birds/animals and eat the meat they certainly don't bbq it. Omnivores will among other things eat meat and/or cooked meat. And crows most certainly fly higher than any building in this city, all birds in this city do ::)
And for the new folks on this board - our peregrines eat birds, not pork chops ...

But you'd think the guy would recognize a crow, wouldn't you? I guess I made the assumption that the meat was raw, but reading it again, I'm not so sure....

I also thought the very same thing when I read the article this morning. Sounds like a quick way to get supper!

LOL I was thinking the same thing when I saw the paper this morning...Also putting my two cents in on the hatch time, I think they are going to hold out until Mother's Day. Seems fitting, they arrived around Easter, why not hatch for Momma on Mother's Day. ;D
