Default Peregrine info

The Peregrine is the fastest creature in the animal kingdom. I think they pull 9-Gs when the dive to catch food (usually another bird). They are awesome birds. I have been fortunate to be invited to participate in the banding of the young falcons in Manchester (they nest on the Brady Sullivan Building). Here is a photo of one of the chicks (at least I hope I am inserting it correctly!!)
