Peregrine Falcon: Woburn – adult female with legs bands 32/BC

August 25, 2016 in Near the Clock Tower

_W7I1776-001The peregrine falcon adults in Woburn have both been seen with regularity over the past week.
During my visits they have been perched in the shade and taking it easy. Not a lot of action!

While driving by for a brief look this evening, discovered the banded (32/BC) adult female perched on one of the utility wires in the southwest section of the overall parking area. Watched her for about 20 minutes in the fading light and as the clouds rolled in. She took off in flight and landed on an upper rocky outcropping to the west of the nest ledge.
