We saw a Peregrine Falcon perched near the top of a very high microwave tower on Carlington hill in Ottawa late yesterday. It was very large and appears to be an adult female (see last 2 pictures at link below). Don and Beth Wigle Ottawa
Location: From Baseline and Clyde - head north on Clyde and stay in the right lane and exit where Clyde splits to the right and the left lanes become Maitland Ave; continue north to end of Clyde where there is limited parking on the right side of the road. Carlington hill is a short walk....the microwave tower provides a reference point. The slopes of the hilltop are steep and icy. http://sites.google.com/site/donwiglebirdsontario/Home/galleries/falcons _______________________________________________ ONTBIRDS is presented by the Ontario Field Ornithologists - the provincial birding organization.
