Grinnell, a peregrine falcon making a home with his partner Annie on the Campanile at the University of California at Berkeley campus, was found dead Thursday, according to a group that monitors the birds.
“We are all deeply saddened to report that Grinnell was found dead in downtown Berkeley this afternoon,” the group Cal Falcons announced on Twitter. “We are devastated and heartbroken.”The announcement added, “His cause of death isn’t known, but he was probably struck by a car given where we found him.”
Annie and Grinnell had been nesting atop the Campanile since 2017. Late last year, it was unclear whether the pair were going to stay together after Grinnell was attacked by two other falcons and hospitalized and Annie was seen starting pairing behavior with one of them.Betty Reid Soskin, Nation's Oldest Park Ranger, Retires At Age 100“They know each other is around,” said Mary Malec of Cal Falcons in a statement in early January.
