With not much to report over much of last week (other than a Turkey Vulture eating the food left on the hack platform), one of the Peregrines which we believe is Wilbur, is still around Rock City. He was seen yesterday afternoon flying from the hack box to a grove of nearby trees. We quickly put a small quail on the hack box feeding platform and within 15 minutes, it was gone. He wasn't seen today, but another small quail was placed on the platform and it was gone within 30 minutes. Jeff Raabe of Rock City is going to re-erect the wildlife camera tomorrow and perhaps he'll be able to capture an image of the Peregrine. Meanwhile enjoy these photos taken by Ray Helman of Orville and Wilbur. We'll update in a few days. Thanks!
