Short afternoon walk

I had a short walk in Sad Janka Kráľa public park and I checked the Peregrine. Have a look:

Peregrine Falcon back in town

I read about the sighting of Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus) in Bratislava yesterday. I took a walk this afternoon and I decided to check its regular wintering site. I spotted it on the top of the main building of Incheba Expo. I observed the raptor for several minutes. Building of Incheba Expo lies in Petržalka but it is very close to the city center. It would be great to spot a pair as this 85,6m high building is very suitable for breeding of this species.
