Muchas Gracias Miguel!

 

Thanks Mr. Mancil! LOL, as you know, I only shoot , shoot and shoot .. birds and what ever come out is many times pure luck. I've been after this pair of Peregrine Falcon for about 5 months and got a few decent shots. I do feel that I got better as I keep shooting them though.

Very nice capture. It seems you shot from above her, or is it an "in-flight" acrobatic move by the bird? Anyway congrats for an excellent image. Wobby.

Thanks Wobby! Actually, she's a bit higher than where I was standing as you can see the background (orange color) are actually houses on a hill . She was training the fledging to fly and hunt a couple week back. It's probably over now that the fledging had started 2 weeks ago.
