[Ontbirds]PEREGRINE EATS LUNCH ON BLUEWATER BRIDGE.

[The RIDERS]

Hello Ont. Birders

Today just after 12.30pm. one of the local PEREGRINES launched from 
the Bluewater Bridge and going into a very fast shallow dive, took a 
Rock Dove (Domestic.) from the flock circling the water tower on the 
Michigan side.  After 'controlling' the pigeon it returned to under 
the bridge to eat.

One reaches the parking lot under the bridge by leaving the 402 at 
the Front St exit and turn Left.  Continue to the lights at the end 
and turn Left.  At the River turn Rt into the Car park and just look 
UP at the brid   The Female likes to perch on the ladder structure.

A long telephoto lens is needed to get anything like a satisfactory 
image, and moening is best for the light.

As a PS, there have been HARLEQUINS here recently.

Good Birding.

Alf.
