And on Monday evening as I left work I heard a bird 'screaming' up above. A Peregrine Falcon, which I confirmed when I got to my car and got my binoculars out.
Very cool.
Right there on the corner of the building.
That little black smudge. Alas, all I had was my pocket camera. Not the right tool for telephoto shots.
And then as I got in my car and drove away, I saw it flying over the parking lot. As least I thought it was. But I was wrong. It was still perched. There were two of them!
Super cool.
Maybe they were a nesting pair.
So the next day I brought my superzoom camera. And when I arrived the next morning I stepped out of the car and saw two birds on the roof!
And I got this shot:
Alas, I've not seen the falcons since.
Bummer.
And for the Birding ID challenged, they are Canada Geese.
Nowhere near as cool as falcons. Perhaps they are following me?
