Yesterday the 22nd, after scattering seed at the Trading Post, I checked Cave Rock where the Prairie Falcons nest every year and sure enough found one (seemed large like a female) perched on a likely nesting ledge. I also found a dipper singing at the upstream bridge in Morrison Park where they build a nest every year. This is an easy place to show your out of town guests a dipper.
