Peregrine Falcons: male/female breeding pair

March 10, 2013 in Near the Clock Tower

A magnificent encounter with both Peregrines just before egg laying time and before departing for a week long family vacation.  The morinng was filled with brilliant sunshine and almost cloudless skies.  The Peregrines moved around the southeast corner of the building at 200 Merrimack Street.  They made many fly by loops chasing bothersome pigeons and numerous roof top landings.  Thankfully the rooftop posing provided an opportunity to capture photos that allow for positive ID by way of legs bands.  This flight shot is one of my new favorites!!  Hope you enjoy this one too!
