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

Hi Melanie,
It's certainly a possibility. I have seen a Merlin in the area around Six
Mile Creek downtown a couple of times in the past month, so consider that
too if you haven't.

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

Ezra and Big Red have been in the 2012 nest, on Weill and on the NW corner of

There was a brief flyover/circle overhead by a Peregrine of BR as she sat on
the top SE corner of Bradfield yesterday after work. No dive bombing or
talons. The PEFA then continued on toward the Vet School area. Ezra was
sitting in the 2012 nest cup at the time and appeared unconcerned.
Two Peregrines! Susan, Ann and I just had one circling the building and one
perched on west side ledge at 1:42

Meena,
You're strict! We've always used any bird that can be seen from the yard. I
believe
that same type guideline is used for point counts, big sits, big squats and
other
competitions. I guess you had best allow for hearing also. ;-)

I was walking back from the lake, where I found no new or unusual waterfowl, and was south of the Children's Garden in Cass Park when I decided to have a look at Bradfield Hall, which was in bright sun through cold clear air, i.e. optimal viewing conditions. Using binoculars I saw a suspicious

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!

Small birds like to harass larger birds, and sometimes the larger birds fight
back.
I photographed a Peregrine/Bald Eagle interaction on 1 January 2013, during the
Ithaca Christmas count:

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
After a few minutes it flew off toward the south across the athletic fields,
taking the time for 3 swipes at a red-tail sitting on one of the light poles.
It disappeared behind a building momentarily and I was unable to stay around to
try to refind it.

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 Falcon

I took a lunch walk today and did not see Peregrine on the Bradfield Cliff.
It seem to come only to roost. Hopefully it will nest, though I am not
sure how Bradfield building maintenance guys will feel about it! I did see
the excited Red-tailed Hawk circling over its future home.

several minutes. When I first saw it, its ruffled back was to me,
