The Peregrines of Kaohsiung, January 2010: Air Combat

             The two Peregrine Falcons Falco peregrinus, of Kaohsiung, ‘Whitey’ (male) and  ‘Blackie’ (female), first reported and photographed by Jason Tu during the winter of 2006–2007, are still using a 22nd floor apartment ledge as a daytime roost and ‘dining room’ during the winter months.  They often fight over the food they catch, to decide which bird gets to eat first.
