Falcon(?) on the trail - cycling video

Multi-use paths through the park often have various obstacles that a cyclist must pay attention to. This morning, it was a falcon (I think - maybe one of the peregrines?) chowing down on what looked like a squirrel. A fascinating bird! I slowed down to get a better look, but he wasn't interesting in being watched, so he took off (with breakfast).

The other cyclist had to dodge the oncoming falcon who flew almost straight at him before heading up into a tree.

Not the tree that was blown over and across the path.

Certainly one of my more interesting rides!
