Here is a link to an article I came across about Peregrines in NYC.  It's an interesting read for both newbie or experienced "bird nerd".  It chronicles the early work by Cornell in the early '70's in reintroducing Peregrines in the East.  I didn't' know about the hybridization, for example.  An interesting read - enjoy!

Thanks for the article.  Not as heavy or technical as the last one.  I'm still wading through it.  I found this article fun to read and interesting about the night flying.  We know that to be true in Rochester because of the residual lighting.
