Peregrine Falcons hunt from heights of up to half a mile high and reach speeds of 200 mph, diving for prey. Peregrines live year-round on the Peninsula.Robert Chong (kneeling), and Dave Weldon (in blue jacket), with fellow photographers at Pt. Fermin Park. Photo by Melissa Chong
I am surprised and disappointed that the Peninsula Magazine is effectively condoning ~20 individuals violating safety regulations just to “get a good photo”, and further providing the full names of specific individual violators. What’s shown here just isn’t safe. Would you have published this photo if it were 20 high school students doing the same thing?
