Dennis Cheeseman photographed this young Peregrine Falcon near MetLife Stadium last week.

The bird was not banded, Dennis reports, so it could not be the same one photographed this summer near MetLife Stadium. That one was banded, and was hatched on the MetLife Building in Manhttan. Earlier post is here.

Saw this Merlin on a telephone pole on Disposal Road on Thursday — near where our Wednesday event on the former Kingsland Landfill will meet up.

We waited 10 minutes in hopes it would fly and we'd get a flight shot or two, but no luck…
