UNMISTAKABLE adult Peregrine Falcon, perched on a TELEPHONE WIRE (of all
places) this morning on Rte. 250 not too far over the Henrico/Goochland line.
Slowed the car down and practically came to a dead stop. It was only about 10 -
15 feet away. Anyone else ever see a Falcon on a telephone wire or anything
else that low? I've seen Kestrels on wires but never Peregrines.
About 100 yards or so later there was a Hummingbird on the line. Not bad for
five minutes of watching power lines!
