For the last two days I have watched 2 Peregrine Falcons under the High Bridge (Smith Ave.S) in St. Paul from the High Bridge Dog Park which is you get to from where Randolph Ave. crosses Shepard Road. You need to stay on Randolph as it goes down to the river and terminates at the dog park. Yesterday the pair were being very vocal as they sat near each other on a support beam under the bridge deck on the South side of the bridge. Today the larger Falcon was sitting on top of the main concrete support (also South side of bridge) that is next to the dog park parking lot. It appears that the top of this support has a rather large flat ledge, which may be a nesting site for the pair. The smaller Falcon flew from a support near the sitting bird and cruised over downtown and came back to perch somewhere in the middle of the bridge.
