Troy Kroeger captured this short, albeit nifty, clip of one of the Peregrines flying up to the nestbox.  Nice view!

    I’ll second Moms ‘WAY COOL’ sentiment! Kudos out to Troy for the clip. Great work, Joel!

  3. Larry says:

    Always wondered about how they approach the nest site. I don’t know if they do a “fly-by” to check out the nest first or hover over the nest before dropping in. Guess the approach he/she used in the video is to dive down then pull up right at the board. You can see how the board on the far side is pock-marked with claw gouges! Bet there will be some repairs to do when the nesting season is over!!
