I saw them courting on Monday morning, 9/15/08. Dorothy called to E2 as she flew around the Cathedral of Learning. Then she went to the nest site & he followed. They haven’t left.

The bridge is in very bad shape and long overdue for repair. I heard they got the money to fix it - so now's the time. I am sure there will be a LOT of Rankin Bridge construction in the coming year.

Keep watching - especially next February - to see if the activity level picks up. Maybe a new pair will establish a new territory! You aren’t the only one to see peregrines at the Rankin Bridge.

Both times the bird was perched on a street light on the bridge and I have been able to get a very good look at it both times and I am positive it is a falcon. I was curious to see if anyone else made these claims cory I am writing to you to say that I believe now on two seperate occassions this year I saw a peregrine falcon on the Rankin Bridge in Homestead.

Isn't interesting that the same behavior has been observed at the Rhodes Office Tower in Columbus by Scout and Orville. Glad to see that Dorothy and E2 are still in the area. I suppose that the juvies are no longer being sighted in the Oakland area. Has anyone ever determined how long peregrine females are capable of producing eggs? Thanks for your great blog.
