Observation details
juvenile 1st year; pale on head barring on underside; was quite an experience -- I was looking at the shorebirds through the scope when I hear a very loud whoooosh, like a small jet was flying, I looked up and it was the peregrine diving for the shorebirds; it made a few passes and then flew across the marsh and perched in a snag next to where one of the osprey was perched; it made a few passes again later but it did not catch anything; it then went and perched in a deciduous tree
