Last week, when we were checking on the Osprey nest at the Marsh Resources Inc. wetlands in Carlstadt, we pleasantly surprised to see a young Peregrine Falcon fly onto the site and perch on an adjacent tower.  The Ospreys did not seem bothered at all.

The falcon was unbanded, and it got us to thinking that it might be the same bird (below) that fledged last year from the successful nest on the Route 3 Bridge.
