3.11.24 McKinley Park, Chicago, IL

On 3.11.24 my father and I visited this McKinley Park industrial building area to check on this Peregrine Falcon pair. We visited once in the morning this day at around 9:30 AM and did not see either bird. We returned between 4:45 PM and 5:20 PM and saw the male. He repeatedly called to the female near the location we believe to be the nest. He changed positions repeatedly facing into the window and looking outward into the lot. We could hear her muffled or distant call so we hypothesize she was in the building, possibly laying an egg. We noted the male has red and black bands on his left foot visible in these images and we have not identified number on his right foot yet.
