Was the school teacher ever notified about Diamanté? I couldn't remember if she was or not. He is gorgeous!

We also saw him fly into some nearby trees and snatch an unsuspecting Starling from one of the branches. Quite an impressive hunter. Love to see "our kids" doing well.   I've never seen a peregrine do that. He's got to be good. Paul |

I've never seen a peregrine do that. He's got to be good. Paul Paul - The four of us couldn't believe it. At first we didn't realize he had really caught the Starling until he flew back to the Central Terminal with it clutched in his talons. Quite amazing. |

Since the chase at CT, we have not be able to positively ID Diamante as being here. Until we know, you can follow the updates on the Buffalo thread or FBPP. Hope to get the ID soon. 4-5 pefas were in the air when we arrived earlier this month. We at first assumed G & D were the ones who returned. but nothing appears normal. Not helping is work being done at CT which will be continuing all year.  |

I hope you will be able to find Diamante at the site soon, and that he and Gleig are both okay.

Well they do take care of their building. I know I would be thrilled if I worked there and had a Peregrine named after me.  |
