On 7.27.24 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 male Peregrine Falcon parent (we call him Morty Richardson) on the side of the tower. The female offspring (we call her Mei) had a playmate today! A seemingly similarly sized tagged juvenile about Mei's size flew around with her. The tagged juvenile perched on a building nearby, but flew away. I was unable to get pictures of the band numbers. Mei also tried hunting some pigeons, though unsuccessfully. Bree flew in just before we left.
See more about these Peregrine Falcons on my McKinley Peregrines page.
