We have Peregrines here and we live down a single track road sometimes one of them pops up in front of the car flies just a metre in front and about a metre high racing the car !!!! I am told this is normal behaviour for them I am so intrigued watching them I am sure it will be my downfal and one day I will in end up in the ditches either side of the road !!l |
