Please be aware, this post has content of the Peregrine Falcon with prey.
On 5.24.25 my father and I made a return visit to this McKinley Park industrial building area to check on the Peregrine Falcon family at 5:35PM. We saw the adult male Peregrine adult (we call Morty) and the adult female (we call Bree). Bree caught a pigeon and Morty got in an altercation with a Ring-billed Gull.
See more about these Peregrine Falcons on my McKinley Peregrines page.
