[cayugabirds-l] Bradfield peregrine
As I got off the bus by Bradfield at about 8:15 this morning, I looked up and saw the Peregrine circling. It circled a number of times and then landed briefly on the SW corner and began vocalizing. Then it flew again and circled a few more times before landing on the SE corner where it was I left a few minutes later.

Re:[cayugabirds-l] Bradfield peregrine
I can confirm (binocular view) the PEREGRINE FALCON atop Bradfield at 4:45pm this evening. The falcon (in multiple daily views since Tuesday this week) prefers to perch at the highest possible point on the southeast corner, although I once also saw it on the highest possible northwest corner. I have not yet seen it perch on one of the east/west faces, and it's droppings seem to confirm that it hasn't spent a whole lot of time on those faces yet this year. The Red-tailed Hawks mostly use the east face in the morning (especially if it's sunny), but in the afternoon I rarely see them there...they tend to stay up high. I have also received credible descriptions from a lab mate that the Peregrine (or perhaps a different one, but the timing always has coincided with no Peregrine on Bradfield...I'm mostly writing right now, so I've been taking frequent walks around the building to look at/for the falcon as a distraction) has likely been hanging out on north campus quite a lot this week and last. And not that they're likely to be confused with the perching Peregrine or the Red-tailed Hawks, but several crows have also taken turns perching in the Peregrine's SE spot this week.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Bradfield peregrine
Good points, but really, Dave, I never doubted your report at Stewart Park! ;^) Kevin At 07:25 PM 1/15/2010, Dave Nutter wrote: I am not denying any reports of a Peregrine Falcon on Bradfield Hall, but I would note that it is not the only raptor to perch on it. Yesterday I saw a RED-TAILED HAWK perched on the northwest corner of the roof of the building and also on an antenna very near that same corner. In the past I have seen a Peregrine use the southeast roof corner, but more frequently use the small decorative ledges partway up the east and west faces of Bradfield. Again, not to deny any Peregrine reports, just to encourage people to look closely if they can. For that matter I have known a Red-tailed Hawk to displace a Peregrine on a couple of occasions, once from prey on ice at Stewart Park, and more recently from the snag opposite the Cascadilla boathouse by Stewart Park. The latter was frustratingly during the 45 minutes between when I reported the Peregrine and when Kevin McGowan showed up to see it. So even if you see a Peregrine, someone else may see a Red-tail shortly afterward in the same place. --Dave Nutter On Friday, January 15, 2010, at 02:40PM, wrote: >It's interesting that the Peregrine over at Cornell was seen around 5, because over here at Ithaca College, there was a Peregrine circling and chasing after a small flock of birds above the outdoor track around 5:10.

Re: [cayugabirds-l] Bradfield peregrine
It's interesting that the Peregrine over at Cornell was seen around 5, because over here at Ithaca College, there was a Peregrine circling and chasing after a small flock of birds above the outdoor track around 5:10. It ended up cruising off to the west. Although this could have been the same bird as the one over at Cornell, its probably more likely that there are at least two Peregrines in the area.

[cayugabirds-l] Bradfield peregrine
Probable peregrine on top of SE corner Bradfield Hall at 4:55pm. No binoculars, so I couldn't be absolutely certain.
