Grinnell, the Berkeley peregrine falcon who had been mated for life to a female named Annie until he had to go to the hospital for a couple of weeks and a new young buck moved in on his lady, has now returned home, and there will be drama.

Of the four eggs laid by mom Val this season, all four have now hatched and appear to be lively little white puffballs. And the dad, Canyon, hasn't killed any of them yet!

The SF falcons at the PG&E building are incubating a clutch of four eggs, and across the Bay, the falcon pair that nests in the Campanile tower on the UC Berkeley campus just produced their third egg of the season, with a fourth due today.

Most of you probably remember when the peregrine falcons that live on the top of the PG&E building in downtown San Francisco provided an apt contribution to the horror show of 2020 — but it's a new year with a new clutch of eggs!

Mother Nature can be cruel. And in the case of the clutch of eggs that a female peregrine falcon has been incubating for over a month, all on live internet television, atop the PG&E building on Beale Street in San Francisco, it was the dad who ate his own young this time.

Nature! It's still happening around us despite the mess that humans have made of their world. And once again I'd like to point you to the meditative live peregrine falcon cam atop PG&E's Beale Street building, where exciting things may be about to happen.

The livestream is back for nesting season at the peregrine falcon nest atop PG&E's downtown SF headquarters at 77 Beale Street, and four eggs are getting ready to hatch!
