Eating meat put out by nearby businesses
I’m not certain. I wish I had a better photo. I couldn't get a good look to see if there was barring on the belly. I had previously thought I had seen a peregrine in a nearby area, but not gotten a photo.
Likely an escaped captive animal based on how unlikely it would be getting here on it's own. No band however.

Female of a pair with a chubby pocket gopher. After eating for a while she flew into the cavity shown in the final image with the remnants.
A neat bird to see regardless of its origin
