Peregrine in backyard

[UpStateRedNeck]

First time I've actually gotten a video, once before I've gotten a picture.  They love my backyard in the winter, I'm a stones throw away from the Hudson river.  Especially if we get a big snowstorm, almost always see them come in and take a bird.  Never seen them hit a Blue Jay before though!

From a couple years ago.  I find a lot of little piles of feathers out there!

The Helderberg Escarpment is very close to our property. So we see them fairly often too. In my opinion, one of the coolest birds that fly!

Nice video and pic RedNeck!
