An adult peregrine falcon prepares to dive at Christopher Nadareski, a research scientist at the New York City Department of Environmental Protection, participating as a volunteer cooperator with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation's Peregrine Falcon Program, after he applies identification bands to the legs of the bird's four chicks inside their purpose-built nest beside the Bayonne Bridge on the Kill Van Kull tidal strait, Tuesday, May 30, 2023, in the Staten Island borough of New York. The nest was built to provide a safe shelter for the extremely aggressive birds who pose a danger to nearby maintenance workers. (AP Photo/John Minchillo)
