After months of sporadically seeing a single Peregrine at the 55 Water St. scrape, I've finally seen two. The birds were all over the area yesterday afternoon, in and out of the scrape. Looks like prey is being delivered, but I don't think there are any eggs in the house yet.
It was great to hear one of the birds over the hellish sound of that awful heliport. Looks like the 55 Water St. nest cam webpage has been inactive 2011.
