On my way commuting to work today, May 10, around 10:40 AM got an unexpected surprise sighting. I was driving south on the Taconic State Parkway on the bridge that crosses the New Croton Reservoir. Peregrine falcon flew slowly over and along the bridge 20 feet above the car. Great view from beneath and alongside the falcon.
The reservoir is the Yorktown Heights/Ossining border Tom Rhindress -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/nysbirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/NYSB.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
