Default Peregrine Falcon site

Just tooting the hometown horn a bit. If you put "Kodak Birdcam" in as keywords on your search engine, you'll get the falcon family living atop the Kodak HQ in Rochester, NY. The 4 cameras are updated every few minutes and when the parents are feeding the chicks (haltched last week) it can be breath taking. If you wanted unlimited shots of male & female, scroll through the discussion section where "watchers" post both web shots and shots they've taken with their cameras. Some magnificent shots of a magnificent bird.

Isn't that a beautiful sight folks. I too have been watching them for some weeks now. Beautiful birds, nice family. Well done Kodak.

Talking Re: Peregrine Falcon site

I could post resultant photos of the chewed up pigeon population - but in keeping with this webiste, methinks they would not win carving ribbons. The animal rights folks had a fit when the pigeons started to die via raptor. Babies must be fed.

Ah.....too darn many pigeons in NY anyway, way to go falcons!

We'll be looking forward to your pictures of your Peregrine Milford....with your talent, expertese and creativity in ducks, I am very much in anticipation! Hope you haven't been flooded out down your way in Nova Scotia, and that you and yours are safe?

Bob
