Judi Manion of the Ross C. Litter Dept. works across from the Courthouse in downtown Chillicothe, and sent our Club some news of interest..this is 4 or 5 yrs. for this bird to return...the noise and people do not seem to bother it at all.

        --Story below--  

The Courthouse in downtown Chillicothe has had a returning Peregrine Falcon for several yrs. now. He/she is back this fall, and yesterday there were 2 for the first time!

The Falcon likes to sit on the clock area of the Courthouse.. overlooking Paint street, even made the Gazette cover this past weekend.

And for food..no surprise here Pigeons seem to be the main course..and there are no end of them.
