For those of you who might be considering a trip to the
Wastepath/CleanEarth landfill here in Marshall County, the gulls are now
here in good numbers. I haven't seen anything unusual yet, but that could
happen at any time. Just wanted to spread the word.

Also, while I was there today, a peregrine falcon dove in and got
everything up. It locked its radar onto a pigeon that somehow managed to
escape. Here are a couple of photos of the encounter:
