Love your photo's Feather2Fin. Your cat looks like it has the same colouring as mine. (black tortoiseshell)  8)

F2F, these photos are all so good -- although it's not the best one of the falcon, I do love the one with the cat!

Me, too, Saoirse - the cat shots are great.

Trying this again. Sorry only one shot of this year's peregrine (the first picture- you can tell because it looks like winter). I was at work and my husband took the photo with his phone.  The other pics are from a few years ago.  Thank you for the tips on posting photos.



From TPC: Have tweaked F2F's code  :)  
If you click on the photo you can visit the rest of her gallery.
2013 looks like Ivy, and while I think her 2010 visitor is Princess, I'm going to check her "speckles" just to be sure.

I've sent you a PM with my location and what I think may be yours.

Do you have a falcon there right now?  I think I may be looking at the same spot from a slightly different perspective!  Will post a photo later!

Today has been a whole lot of the same thing.  Only once do I think I saw Ivy on the eggs, the rest of the time it's been "Princess" and she looks velcroed to them.  At the moment she has her tail pushed up against the wall and she looks out of the wind.  Unfortunately, there is snow again flying about but I can't see if it is accumulating anywhere so perhaps tomorrow morning won't be as bad as this morning!

Incredible photos, F2F. If these were taken with a phone camera, I can't imagine how they would look if taken with a camera. Dennis, RCF, you may just have another protegee in your midst. Looking for more photos, F2F. Welcome to the forum.  :) :-*

Whoa feather2fin!!!  Those pictures with a falcon outside your window?!!  And your cat just on the other side of the glass watching it?!!  I'm amazed and chuckling at those shots :D

Fantastic!
