    Hi Birders,
    
    This morning I was driving down Paseo Padre Pkwy just south of Patterson 
    Ranch Rd when I stopped (illegal, so I pulled into a gravel driveway) to 
    check a raptor on an electrical tower. It was only a Red-tailed Hawk but 
    while watching it the Prairie Falcon flew into view. It made a few 
    unsuccessful passes at the hawk, then made a ground-level assault on a large 
    flock of Rock Pigeons. I lost it in the commotion.
    
    Dave Weber,
    Milpitas
