Richard Zweig noticed this young Peregrine Falcon, apparently looking directly at him!

It almost looks like the young falcon posed for Richard. Peregrine Falcons are powerful birds and, boy, can they fly fast. They prey on medium-sized birds. Peregrines have a piercing call which you can hear at this link at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Peregrine_Falcon/sounds

Thanks to Richard for allowing me to share his photo with you here.

oh, such a beautiful autumn day we are having, with crystal clear skies and a gentle breeze. The Pacific Ocean was crashing this morning!

There have been multiple sightings of several Red-shouldered Hawks recently. Richard Zweig photographed one perched on top of a bush.

These medium-size hawks prey on rodents, frogs and snakes. Perhaps Richard found this hawk listening for its next meal. They have a whistling call, which you can listen to here: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Red-shouldered_Hawk/sounds

Thanks To Richard for allowing me to share his photo with you here.

We are having another sunny day, but there is rain coming in a few days!
