Tim's Hill County Park, on Tuesday September 14, a _*Peregrine Falcon*_ 
flew to my left only a few feet away.  I watched the falcon fly off to 
the SE into the lower trees.  I think this falcon was perched on the 
fire tower next to the observation tower.  Hoping it might return to 
this perch I remained on top for 30 minuets but the falcon did not 
return.  I have seen the adult falcons at MG&E, at a distance, but this 
was my first close encounter.  This tower might not have a large number 
of climbers so it is possible the falcon remains in the area.  He 
certainly would have a great view of the area for a possible meal.
