Thanks to Colin Winterbottom for sharing these incredible photos he took July 1st at the National Cathedral:
“Details: Usually wary of cities, peregrine falcons were first seen in DC in the 90s yet it remains unusual to see one in the city. He isn’t nesting at the Cathedral; I saw & heard him the day before but not since. The Minotaur gargoyle represents a mythological half-man / half-bull; he is clutching a young human sacrificed to him. The gargoyle is near the top of the south west tower facing the Bishop’s Garden. It was designed by Jay Carpenter and carved by Cary Shafer.”
