Good Stuff #5: Peregrine Nest

As I mentioned in "Sick as a Doorknob" below, we climbed up to this Peregrine nest Sunday. The actual pic was taken last year-- there is no snow that low this warm spring.


The line of droppings that mark the ledge is just above the foreground snow...

So it's occupied? Too bad it's south of 60, and out of range!

Always has been, even in the bad years AFAIK. And always seems to fledge young.

Maybe they drew that line deliberately? It is only 4 miles south!

On the other hand, Libby, no bad climber in her youth, says it would be a bad one to get into.
