    That Depeche Mode when we score!!
    Late this morning on my local patch with Ruby a Roo of course,also my nephew and his dog Basil we really enjoyed fantastic lengthy views of the local pair of Peregrines.
    They put on a real show in the Sky,superb flyers they are indeed,the best thing that flies on the Planet.
    The day I tire of seeing Peregrines is the day I no longer need to breath.

    PS. It was the best views my nephew has had of Peregrines,it made his day:84:

    Let's hope it installs in him a love of nature and the local wildlife around your area that stays with him forever Cider. It's a great gift.
