Sara Bogard actually saw a pair of Peregrine Falcons at the Point Arena-Stornetta Lands bluffs. She was able to photograph one of them perched on the bluff edge.
Peregrine Falcons hunt medium-sized birds. They can reach speeds of nearly 70 MPH when in their hunting dive. Those "medium-sized birds" most assuredly never knew what hit them.
Peregrine Falcon calls are high-pitched notes that you can listen to at this link to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Peregrine_Falcon/sounds
Thanks to Sara for allowing me to share her photo with you here.
It's warm on the Mendonoma Coast today, with strong breezes. Tomorrow is forecast to be warmer still.
