Peregrine falcon

Guess who I met today. This is a rescued bird that is being cared for.

I'm sorry I haven't had time to comment at all in the last few days. I will catch up next week. Thanks everyone for your kind words they are appreciated.
amazing against the white background...they are such intense, regal looking birds....great capture of him.

My younger brother and I spent an afternoon drawing a large peregrine falcon. We taped a whole bunch of lined paper together and drew a large version of this bird. Oh of course, it was James idea, he was watching birds at 8 years old and doing archeology by digging up rocks and stuff! There is something so majestic about these birds!
