If you were unable to watch the drama unfold live, the good folks at
DOS put up photo stills of the bout between the resident male PEFA and
a challenger yesterday.  They can be viewed here:

On the way home over the Bay Bridge tonight after viewing the TUFTED
DUCK in absolutely amazing conditions (THANKS RON!), one PEFA was
perched on the very top left of the Western most tower on the
West-bound span of the bridge.  I called Leslie & Joe to let them
know, since they were at the Holiday Inn Express enjoying the duck.

While we were there, we noticed the famous HAWKOWL lic. plates in the
parking lot, but no Leo in sight.  Perhaps he was enjoying the pool or
the free coffee at the Holiday Inn?  Leo, we just hope you saw the
duck!

Good Birding,
