Observation details

Beautiful individual with nice rufous wash throughout the front side. Saw it perched on a mobile tower as I was driving by. Was looking around actively. Did a few head bobs and then launched eastward. Didn’t return after that. Mostly seen RNFA perch at such towers but very interesting to see shaheens on similar perch.
