Peregrines at La Jolla Cove : June 2020

June 1, 2020

Part of the trail was closed for work so visibility of some perches was limited. The male brought in some food, but the juveniles mostly hid behind a palm tree with it.

A gloomy and drizzling morning. Two feedings were reported before I got there. The male brought in a third to a low ledge.
The trail work continues, and next week will be on the photographer's side of the bridge, so this was my last visit of the season.
