Hello, this flew over my house earlier and the starlings went absolutely crazy. I’m sure it’s a peregrine but I couldn’t see the colour because the sky was bright
I am a follower of Peregrines here in UK Dave & we are so lucky be inundated with very many successful Peregrine nests on our cathedrals, churches, highrise buildings & cliffs! Many of these have live streaming cameras fitted so that we can follow progress each season, some even broadcast all year round! Currently able to watch many chicks progress to fledging plus postings of vids & pics on Twitter every day! Also watchpoints set up by some sites with bins & spotting scopes available for folk to watch live action!
Must increase chances of birdwatchers spotting one flying anywhere in our skies? I think Ellis's pic is a Peregrine!
Not sure if it’s the same bird but I now have a peregrine pair that likes to soar over the village. See them pretty much every time that I’m outside, I’m quite amazed to see them that often. Definitely peregrines as they have the black moustaches, striped underneaths and stocky build.
