The Peregrine Falcon is a juvenile, and I had to search for this one. It was that call that alerted me to the Peregrine's presence. I have posted the peregrines before in this high fir tree, but they were

He came over very high up, and I zoomed him on the wrong camera setting. It is a Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus), and his dive is the fastest of all the birds in the world. I have 3 shots of the falcon,

Not often that I get this famous bird with its catch on camera. Why is the bird famous? Its attacking dive is the fastest in the world. No other bird can dive as fast as the (Falco peregrinus). Here below

Discussion of American Kestrel, the smallest U.S. falcon.

Peregring Falcons are versitile, talented and adaptable hunters.

Summer and now the Rock Kestrel has returned to the tree where they nest. I also have some Ravens in flight at the end of the post. Out in nature again and try as I might, last year, I found their nest

Winter Raptors in Washington State

Law and order on high alert as people flock to the beaches in the heat. The Falcon and us had the same idea. Get out early before the heat peak to get our things done and then run to hide from the African

LET'S GO FALCONS for one night...

It is in fact a Kestrel and one of only three species in the country. The Kestrel flew in under the roof of the forecourt at the service station and he sat looking at me. This is a story of some totally
