Tower Nest - 2013 / ? & ?
RCF:
The birdie had prey today. It looked like a wading bird of some sort, with long legs with long toes. ;D
EcoGeek:
Very cool! ;D
RCF:
While we were out there, we saw a lot of other birds migrating through the area. We saw a flock of 30 to 40 pelicans, an immature bald eagle that soared above us for a few minutes, quite a few hawks, lots of geese and of course the gulls. It was a beautiful day for bird watching.

We saw one peregrine here today. ;D Actually, I heard it before I saw it. Both Ravens were at the nest and we were checking underneath it to see if there was poop art on the back wall to see if there were any hatches. About a minute after that I heard the kak kak kak kak of an alarm call, that's when the falcon stooped and hit one of the ravens that was perched on the railing above the nest. It knocked the raven right off it's perch :o and both raven and falcon disappeared below the nest where we couldn't see because of buildings. The other raven at the nest walked or hopped away from the nest, we never saw the ravens after that. A few minutes later we went to the south side where we saw the falcon preening on the catwalk railing at the top of the tower.
Rose:
Good news here ! :) RCF will post! ;)
