update
the pictures above, were taken over the last few days whilst out with colin and his peregrines. as you can see the differance between these and the ones previous the quality of picture is a hell of a lot better.i found something new out whilst looking through some of the pictures i have taken, when the peregrine makes impact with the prey there is a membrain that covers the eyes at the last second to protect them, this is seen on one of the pictures i have taken. i double checked this with colin and he has also advised me that this is the case.talking to colin today and he has advised me of the next part of my "training" it messy and gory but i am sure i will be able to manage. updates will be posted when i have completed it.while flying a male peregrine today with colin, i jumped the gun slightly as i thought the peregrine was flying away from us, but colin advised me to have some faith. and as he said this, the bird circled around some trees into the wind and lifted up on the wind and up to the prey. so again a big thankyou to colin for his advice and patiance with me.
