I’ve been wondering if anyone is still around (suppose she is laying claim to this location).
Thank you for the update RCF. :)

Checked out here yesterday. One peregrine was perched on the catwalk railing on the south stack and looked to have a full crop. There are lots of gulls out in this area so I'm thinking that may have been it's lunch. ;D

Been there all season is a hopeful sign for next season ... now if we could just get another bird (one who's old enough to understand what goes where and why) to hang around with him/her next year!!
Had a look back at the photos you posted RCF - the bird seems large enough to be a female ... what's your assessment? A female sticking to this location might be even more hopeful ....

We seem to think it's female and it was a lot easier to tell when there were two of them out here, so I just don't know. :-\

First estimations are more often right, so we'll go with it is a female until something alerts us to the contrary ... it looked like a female to me sitting there on the rail so I think you are right!
