Went by the Ayer Mills Clock Tower this afternoon looking for the local peregrines….no luck! Winds were blowing close to 20 MPH with guts up to 30 MPH; cloudy skies with a few breaks, and temps in the mid-20’s. In light of colder temps, made a pass by the Verizon Cell Tower….only to find both peregrines nestled near one another on south facing upper floor warm air exhaust vents!

While making a short tour through Haverhill this afternoon, had a nice opportunity to locate one of the peregrine falcons perched on an air conditioning unit hanging outside a 7th floor window in the Bank of America building in downtown Haverhill. Was able to just observe for a while, then captured a few images. Bingo, the female flies around in a loop and lands on an adjacent AC unit, two windows over, same top floor. After a few minutes, the female took off quickly in pursuit!

The unbanded male peregrine was seen ripping prey apart early this afternoon with winds out of the west blowing 15-20 MPH, temps in mid-20’s, and scattered clouds.

The male peregrine was observed this morning just loafing around in the general quarry area!
