Ha, I was fooled by the weed looking like an antenna, too!  This bird is unbanded also.  On the rewind soon after the view switches to the sunny  closeup on the perch, the pergrine is squawking.  Was that like Newman last season?

Newman!!! So glad he's back.  I needed to see left side of face to be more sure, but thought it looked like him.  Thank you for the photos, Shep, Phyl, Lori, STL!

ICE OUT
February 17, 2023
I noticed this morning the BLUE water of the river - so the ice is out - just some on the edges.

Chanced are barge traffic will begin soon
Watch for men at the locks to check them

March 18, 2022  ice is out on the river!

Yah Shep, solid ice on the camera lens!  This area didn't get much snow in the storm yesterday.
Thanks for the purloined pic of peregrine in flight.
