El Dorado Peregrine Falcons

I hadn’t seen falcons on the El Dorado this winter, so I was happy to see a pair of Peregrine Falcons there today. One was on each tower.

I first spotted one circling over the Central Park Reservoir, and watched it land on the building. But then I noticed a second falcon on the other tower.

Watching them take off and land, I could see at least one of them was banded. It’s going to be tough to read the numbers from the ground. It looked like there was both a standard band and a larger colored letter/number band.
