Hi, tweeters.

I just had to share this. As I was driving through downtown Tacoma this
morning (at 8:10) on my way to work, I saw an aerial prey transfer from
male to female Peregrine Falcon about 100 feet above. It was spectacular,
and I was glad there were no cars around me, so I could watch for at least
a few seconds. The prey was a pigeon-sized bird. Certainly seems as if
they've got breeding in mind. All of you downtown falconophiles probably
see this all the time, but I've not been so fortunate.
