here's a healthy Peregrine Falcon family nest on a cliff in Frederick County, MD today.
The female sat 5 feet from the nest for 45 minutes - keeping at least one eye open but silent - before the male returned with food (she greeted him loudly), he fed the chicks, and took off again.
NOTE: no aerial food exchange

Eye of the Eagle
I spent a few minutes watching this white-tailed eagle do absolutely nothing, and it was riveting. It sat on its branch at Fota Wildlife Park like it owned the place which, fair enough, when you're the largest bird of prey in Ireland, you probably do. The dark backdrop did me a favour here, throwing all the attention onto that pale, scruffy head and the hooked yellow beak. A moment later he launched into the air and flew off to another part of his enclosure.

The #SuperHeavy static fire ran at liftoff power levels. The deluge system managed the immense energy release from the higher-performance #Raptor 3 engines. Should the mission go largely according to plan, the turnaround to the next flight could be short ⏱️, with Booster 20 already stacked and Ship 40 having completed cryoproofing https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2026/05/booster-19-33-ship-39-rollout/

Farley has been at NIWRA for a long time. I first met him there, about a decade ago & he'd been there for awhile at that time.
You can support Farley:
Farley was found near 100 Mile House BC after being hit by a vehicle. The collision resulted in a badly broken wing which had to be partially amputated. He cannot fly and will live here at the Centre as a permanent, non-releasable resident.
