No sign of the falcons today, but a couple other raptors were around.

The falcon pair mated in the star pine shortly after I arrived, then both flew off. Later, the female was back in the pine.
A colony of Brandt's Cormorants near the cove were anywhere from nest building to feeding good sized chicks.
