I finally got over to Kodak Park (actually Eastman Business Park, since many of the buildings are now leased to other companies) this afternoon.  Carol was parked at the pull-off on Weiland Road and she pointed out the female Peregrine, who was tucked in on the east side of the blue power plant.  Since I'm a Kodak employee with an employee pass, I drove around the corner of Weiland Road and parked in the nearby visitor lot.  Across Weiland Road to the north is a large employee parking lot.  Just beyond the parking lot are a set of railroad tracks, and beyond those is the blue power plant building.  By walking to the edge of the parking lot (it's surrounded by a chain-link fence) I was able to get quite close.  The falcon was well in the shadows and her back was turned to me (she was snoozing much of the time) so I had no opportunity to spot a band, and the picture quality isn't the greatest.  Nonetheless, in better light, and with a scope from that location, we'd probably have a decent shot at reading a leg band.
