I was running West on Portage ave yesterday morning and saw the same thing. PF just STREAKING up Portage avenue. It did a few circles right over my head (I was at about Wall St), then headed back west and disappeared.

(Princess Auto/DJs/Timmies/PetroCan/TD/BMO). This was about 7:15 p.m. last night. I have thought I've spied a peregrine there before but there's lots of crows and sea gulls usually inhabiting those skies, so I've tended to doubt my eyes. But this time I had plenty of time to watch him or her (right over my head and fairly low as there's no tall buildings in that lot) and there's no doubt in my mind that it was a peregrine. S/he came in from the southeast, first seemingly trying to land on one of the cranes at a construction site and either missing or thinking better of it, flying a circle & a half over the lot and then heading southwest. The Assiniboine river is just to the south of Portage. Whoever it was - it was pretty exciting to see!
