7.18.24 McKinley Park, Chicago, IL

  Please be aware, this post has content of the Peregrine Falcons with prey.

On 7.18.24 my father and I visited this McKinley Park industrial building area to check on the Peregrine Falcon family at 6:30 AM. We first saw the female Peregrine Falcon parent (Bree) on the south side of the tower. The male Peregrine Falcon parent (Morty Richardson) flew in with the female offspring (Mei). Then the Peregrine Falcon fledgling (Mei) presumably ate on top of the building with the female parent (Bree) while Morty perched and preened. Morty then flew out when Mei took his perch and she ate a small bird.
