Driving to the Arc Light this afternoon:
Peregrine Falcon: Pair engaging in aerial acrobatics between twin high-rises along Wishire between LACMA and La Brea, one bird almost free-falling against face of south tower.
American Kestrel: Single in Home Depot parking lot along Sunset just east of 101 Fwy. Absolutely no habitat in sight except for a strip of Indian hawthorne landscaping around lot. I wondered - where was thing hunting? As we were leaving, I saw it shoot out of one of the little ficus trees in the lot, probably chasing House Sparrows around.
Cooper's Hawk: Adult cruising low along north side of Sunset east of Vine; disappeared behind some old buildings.
So, I guess the three urban prey items are well represented - pigeons, Mourning Doves and House Sparrows!
