A Peregrine Falcon was seen at 7:30 this morning on Water Street.
“It flew by… a really big stocky falcon with pointed wings…banked, reversed direction and landed on the George Street United Church spire at McDonnel and Water St… we got out our binos and the bright yellow legs and big dark, strongly contrasting face mask were obvious. No doubt.”
