[va-bird] Roosevelt Island Peregrine???

I took advantage of the extra day off to walk from the Courthouse area of 
Arlington down to Roosevelt Island and back. Not a lot of birds overall, but 
a lot of variety...

First, I saw what I believe to be an immature Peregine Falcon in the trees 
along the GW Parkway near the Roosevelt Island Parking Lot. Has anyone else 
seen a Peregrine in the area recently? Awfully large to be a Merlin or 
Kestrel...

Second, the list for the day:

Black-crowned Night Heron
Belted Kingfisher
Canada Geese
Black Vultures (circling over Rosslyn)
Goldfinch
Hairy Woodpecker
Downy Woodpecker
Red-bellied Woodpecker
Carolina Chickadee
Song Sparrow
White-throated Sparrow
Cardinal
Blue Jay
Junco
House Sparrow
Starling
Euro. Rock Doves
Ring-billed Gull
