Sorry Wombat101, those birds are most likely Ospreys. They eat fish, Peregrines eat rodents and pigeons and such. I've never seen one trying for fish. I have, however seen Ospreys all along the Jersey coast catching Mossbunker and other fish. Ospreys would be the ones most likely to roost on a large bridge while a peregrine would prefer tall buildings that would appear to be a cliff.

It may be that there are ospreys nesting on the bridge as well, but i do happen to know for a fact that there are falcons on the bridge as well. I've lived here for 24 years and at least once every couple of years some idiot gets himself run down or into an accident because they stop to look at them or the nests. Every so often, the local fishwrap (the Staten Island Advance) runs a story on the falcons on the bridge. Perhaps what I'm seeing is the ospreys eating the churned up fish and the falcons harassing the other wildlife? LOL!
