Please be aware, this post has some content of the Peregrine Falcons mating.
On 3.7.24 my father, brother and I visited this McKinley Park industrial building area to check for this Peregrine Falcon pair. We had not seen them since 2.21.24. We first spotted the female on the top of a north facing facade of a building southeast of the tower.
See more about these Peregrine Falcons on my McKinley Peregrines page.
