Welcome to the Severn River Bridge Peregrine Family: Various Photos.

These are some of the various photos that, in some cases, help tell the story. In some cases, I just thought the photos were nice.

I saw this Belted Kingfisher on Saturday morning while watching the Peregrines.

The Kingfisher again.

A bit blurry, but the shots where the Kingfisher looked South were even more so.

On Saturday night (June 23rd), the Peregrine Chick, nicknamed Charlotte, tried one last attempt at flight.

After one last look down, she spent the rest of the evening sleeping here on her catwalk. Luckily, no cats.

This is Brian & Sarah's beach, looking West (away from the bridge). It's where I spotted the Kingfisher, uhm, fishing.

Bring me your tired, your feathered masses...

This photo was taken by Craig from the USFWS. Notice the chick on the roof in the upper left corner.

This is Matt's view. The bridge is to the left. The Naval Academy Bridge and my home is to the right. Sorry, my home is too small and too inland to be seen in this photo.

The Route 50 Severn River (Scenic, as the sign says) Bridge, looking towards Arnold and St. Margarets, from the Annapolis side.

Can you name this bird (above)?

Uncle Frank. A good man. A generous and kind host, shown here with the Peregrine chick.

I think the Peregrines are soon to be off on their wandering way. In the meantime, here are some 'other' photos from the day.

While while watching the Peregrines, these two chirped it up behind me.

I think they were trying to distract me.

Cedar Waxwings are stunning little birds. They glow.

Oiseau was also doing his best to distract me.

Oiseau is a handsome young lad.

Why do kids do this? I'm assuming it's the younger ones. Who choses to drink Natural Light? It is the beer with the taste for food, but there was no evidence of food anywhere. Maybe it was on sale?

Nice river. I wish people would stop being so lazy about keeping it that way. Truth be told, the beach visitors regularly use the green cooler as a trash can. Someone should probably empty it every now and again. It's probably the raccoons. Studies show they prefer Natural Light over the other beers.
