Peregrine Pics Plus

So in the last few days, the peregrines have been putting on one heck of a show. For starters, they fly as a solo...





...as a duo, practicing mock attacks...




...or as a trio in the family unit.


They hang out on the tops of antenna on the top of tall buildings looking for lunch, though apparently the kids don't always like that.





Then they catch lunch. Usually it's a gull of some sort, sometimes a rock dove. They find a nice spot, and chow down.




Good parents share with their kids.



When lunch is done, it's time for a nap or a sit to digest.





Then it's time to fly off, and do it all again.


The post is "Peregrine Pics Plus". Perigrines are not all I see from my office window. At the end of the day today, an osprey flew by -- with a fish in its talons.


Take that, oh ye with Pine Siskins in the back yard.
