Notes: Birded with Tom and Colleen Becker on the observation deck at the Falls. We were looking for early shorebirds. We observed a spectular attack, an adult peregrine falcon attacked/scolded what appeared to be an inmature peregrine falcon right above the observation deck. The inmature raptor was noticeable larger.
