Utica, New York Peregrines 2018

Astrid and Ares continue to be the resident pair at this nest.

Astrid laid her first egg on April 1.

This article has some great photos of Astrid with her first egg. What a beauty she is.

Last night I watched Astrid prepare to lay her second egg, but it was really too dark in the nest to see much.

The "Canyon" in Utica sure seems to be a popular spot for falcons. Astrid and Ares have had a lot of trouble with intruders in the last few years.

Another day, Another intruder

There's been reports of an intruder there almost daily this year.
