Observation details
I glanced out of my window by pure chance... and instantly had a small heart attack when I noticed an absolutely beautiful Peregrine perched on the nearby dead tree! It seemed to be looking for prey, constantly glaring around and bobbing its head. I managed to get off some shots I'm very pleased with before it hurled itself away. Peregrines are my favourite of all the Raptors so this was a very happy moment!
