Peregrine Falcon

Colorado Springs, Colorado

Today was overcast, cool, with intermittent rain showers; so, we stayed put till 3:30 PM when we headed out for a hike at Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
There were several of these 'speedsters' nesting high in these red stone clifts along with several Prairie Falcons - I was surprised the two species would be nesting so close to one-another!
Yes, I needed my spotting scope and digiscoping camera - 600mm is not enough lens.
