Peregrine Falcon

Ensley; Memphis, TN

This was a striking young Peregrine. One thing that is unusual is the extent of the markings on the leggings, these heavier markings are more typical of the races other than tundrius. You can make out the shape of the Lesser Yellowlegs it has killed underneath it.

We were fighting a steady wind, both hampering stability and trying to catch the bird between the blowing weeds.
