I hope this will encourage more protection from state park officials at
Taughannock. The encroachment on that gorge from neighboring business and
the public needs to be kept in check.

Here’s a link to an article I just wrote for Audubon about a disturbing decline
in Peregrine Falcon numbers in some areas. I hope it encourages more
researchers, agencies, and birders to monitor the falcons closely this coming
spring. https://tinyurl.com/ytzzv92f

I was thrilled to find one of the Peregrines looking up at me from about 40
feet away - perched on a snag on the north rim of Taughannock gorge just below
the visitor’s center (8:30 am). It sat preening and looking around, aware of my
presence but not seeming to be distracted by it. It called oc
How wonderful to see a Peregrine so close!
Yes, Peregrine Falcons returned to the Taughannock Falls area in the past
couple of years. You may be interested in an upcoming presentation, *The
Peregrines of Taughannock Gorge,* that Tim Gallagher, former

I'm astounded that I just had a male PEREGRINE FALCON perched in a small
tree directly across the road from me! I watched it for several minutes as
it sat quietly. I was able to see it perfectly through my living room

A peregrine falcon swooped by low and fast between Caldwell Hall and Martha
van Rennselaer Hall on the Cornell campus at about 8:10 this morning. It
was chasing another bird unsuccessfully as it was navigating a slalom
course among the construction equipment.

Come to think of it, I saw an adult Bald Eagle later Sunday afternoon on the
dead tree in the lake near the white lighthouse. That could explain the dead
goose and perhaps the relative paucity of birds on the ice.

For what it’s worth, there was a dead Canada Goose in the middle of the Stewart
Park ice shelf on Sunday afternoon. I don’t know what killed it, but a
Peregrine today on that or another goose carcass does not necessarily mean that
the Peregrine killed it. Maybe the goose carcass is simply an eas

Hi all,
Just now an adult Peregrine passed my window up very close, may be something
like 20 feet and circled and headed west. No, but actually it has turned back
and headed towards Vet School and beyond.
BTW, the Tower Road is perfect east-west road. I think on a equinox sun should

Dave,
I think yard bird is the one which flies over or alights within your yard
boundary. This would another category! Birds seen from the yard!

I have actually seen the bird there many mornings in recent weeks, when I drive
by the Gun Hill apartments on Lake St. (between 8:35 and 8:40 most weekday
morning), but have not been in a position to stop and get bins on it to
identify until today.
How long did you hold up traffic watching the falcon?! :- )
Ha ha!

Coming home from work around 5:25 today, I was stopped at a traffic light
on Buffalo and Meadow Streets. There were 25 or so Rock Pigeons flying
about. I noticed a PEREGRINE FALCON flying among them. Luckily my
binoculars were on the front seat which confirmed the ID.
Good Birding, Ann

About 11:30am I got a phone call from Melissa Groo, who had gone to Stewart Park in search of the Peregrine. If she doesn't post to the list by tomorrow morning what she told me she saw and photographed, I will do so. For the moment I will just say that Stewart Park is pretty special. --Dave Nutter

Hi all,
I went to my front yard to pick up my moth light for winter storage when a dark
looking large falcon came into view coming low along Six Mile Creek not very
far from the house. It continued flying along Rt 79 quite some distance in
Southeast direction. I also found a small group of smal

At 5:11 this evening, there was a Peregrine Falcon circling over the Cornell
Law School, much to the dismay of a flock of panicked starlings below.

Yard bird!! Actually, I was able to scope it through trees from my dining room window, and my non-birder wife and son saw it too. About 4:05 pm it flew, though. Thanks, Bill! This was a much better view than Bradfield Hall would've been. Everyone else, keep your eyes peeled for a Peregrine Fal
