Hello all,
Today, my dear friend Laura Erickson and I scouted out the peregrines in =
Duluth. We started at the Hacienda del Sol, a fine Mexican eatery about =
a block east of the Hotel Duluth. The view was pretty good, but the =
birds were not in the eastern area. We ate a quick lunch (I recommend =
them highly!), then we headed out and found one of the young females on =
a very tall light pole on the Lake side, behind some buildings. So we =
headed across Superior St. and got onto the Lake Walk at 1st Ave E. =
There is a really nice park there, with a pavilion and some benches. =
There we saw the second young female on another tall light pole! They =
were probably 150 feet or so from each other. We glassed and scoped =
them for over 30 minutes, and Laura was able to get some digiscope =
photos for her blog. We decided that this was the very best vantage =
point to view the birds...the nest box is easily scoped from there, and =
the Lake Walk sure beats the traffic and buses and noise of Superior St. =
=20
Check out the photos and the latest news on the peregrines on Laura's =
very cool site, www.birderblog.com and be sure to check out Duluth's =
favorite birds of the summer. =20
