One male Painted Bunting was seen yesterday near my house. Also FOS Turkey Vultures in good numbers. Just now (10 minutes ago), a beautiful Peregrine Falcon was soaring at 1000+ feet heading south, and then next thing I know it tucks in it's wings and dives down 200 feet away from me on some Monk Parakeets, but missing them. This is the second time I experienced this species diving down after something, and it really is incredible.
