Banding day for peregrine falcons




I don't know if any of you watch any of the peregrine falcon cameras (Google for peregrine cam) but yesterday was banding day in San Francisco. Here's one of the stills from the experience. No, she's not amused by this giant mammal that has invaded to nesting area (on a top floor balcony on the PG&E building).



There are three chicks and they will fledge in about 2 weeks. There is a whole group of volunteers trained to help out if any of the fledglings don't make their first flight to a safe place.
