Is anyone concerned as I am that maybe peregrines and cities don't mix as
well as we would like? I know they have lived in cities for a long time--I
grew up in Miami with wintering peregrines downtown--but from the number of
window strikes that are being reported, perhaps a city isn't the best place
for a young peregrine to fledge. Does anyone have data on the frequency of
this event, which has happened all too often in Seattle? Any other
comments?
