This peregrine falcon apparently killed a surf scoter and ate most of it before I saw it -- at Stone Lagoon in Humboldt County, California on April 27, 2010. The falcon was at the breach site (which is still closed). When I noticed it I stopped to take pictures, and it had apparently already seen me -- but it kept feeding. When it was fed up (I assume), it did a fly-by of me before flying off. I waited to see if it would come back, but when I finally checked the carcass it was pretty clean of meat. So I don't think I bothered its feeding, but it was clearly aware of me being there.
