The Fourth Time ...



... is the charm.

We caught the peregrine falcon on film today! Actually we caught BOTH of them on film today. As it turns out, there are two, male and female, in our neighborhood. These shots are of the male. He perched in a tree that we passed on our way out and he was there still when we came back sitting still as a stone, watching. Amazing.

Wow ... thanks, ArborSam. It's still really cool to have red shouldered hawks in our neighborhood.

You know what's wierd? I learned a new word today from sam's comment - accipiter -and then today I was watching a kid's show with Levi and they said accipiter (talking about hawks). What's up with that?
