Peregrine Falcon



The Peregrine Falcon shown was photographed at the Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge. This refuge is located north of Portland, Oregon in Washington State close to the Columbia River. We are in Oregon visiting our daughter and son-in-law. Sunday, we went to Ridgefield and were treated with several different species of birds, but the highlightof the day was the Peregrine Falcon who kept its perch at a fairly close distance making it easy for viewing and photographing.
