Hi Tweeters,

Saw a cool interaction between a Band-tailed Pigeon and a Peregrine Falcon. The falcon appeared to just be passing over 520 at the Evergreen Point bus stop and the pigeon went after the falcon. There was contact but it was unclear what exactly happened because it happened so fast. My best guess is the falcon took a dig at the pigeon. Three feathers floated serenely down after both birds each went their own way.
