Colleen and I finally got to see a few warblers today. Despite several obvious misses we managed a few nice birds (FOS). I would also like to mention, there were 2 Peregrine Falcons flying together at the Gallagher power plant. This makes three times in a row that at least one falcon was present at Gallagher. Today marks the first time two were there together. One bird was a bit larger and may suggest a pair might take up residency at this site. A nest box has been in place for a couple of years I believe. Location: Shawnee Park Riverwalk Observation date: 5/4/10 Notes: What difference a day makes...
