A Peregrine Falcon preening, shaking his/her leg, and in flight.

Michael Beattie is monitoring several sites where Peregrine Falcons have nested the past few years on the Mendocino coast. He caught this Peregrine preening recently.

And then shaking his/her leg.

Here's a photo Michael took last year of  Peregrine Falcon in flight, and looking at Michael!

We are happy Peregrines have returned to the Mendonoma Coast, along with Bald Eagles.

Thanks to Michael for allowing me to share his photos with you here.
