  • They're not Peregrine or Bat Falcons, as both of those have horizontally barred feathers on the breast (Bat Falcon - http://ibc.lynxeds.com/files/pictures/Bat%20Falcon_0.jpg).

    Your falcon has a vertical bar pattern. The white throat patch and darker breast coloring makes me believe it's a Brown Falcon (falco Berigora: http://www.fatbirder.com/photos/50ceed1997052fd7d95678040a35fe6fFalconidae.jpg). There are so many species that have only subtle variations that it's hard to tell.

    I have a federal license for rehabilitating sick and injured birds of prey and my last bird was a Sparrow Hawk (smallest of the Falcon family) that was hit by a car. He was awesome! And best of all, he made a full recovery and was released back to the wild on April 15th, 2009.

    Great footage. Thanks for sharing!

  • Quoted comment by alivethruluck: Always been fascinated by the Peregrine Falcon ever since i seen a documentary about them at primary school.

    Your lucky you can get to see them that close, i wish i could but they are protected like the Crown jewels where i live and their territory.

    $20,000 at least for a wild fledgling.

    hey alive good to see ya.
    glad you liked it.
    peace.

    I used to play in a band with 2 brothers who did the same as you . Learned a lot and got an interest myself , owls were my favs , but raptors are awesome . What a horrible raukus noise peregrine chicks make .

  • Where was this video shot? They sound like Sparrow Hawks, although they don't have the typical head masks that Sparrow Hawks have. Stellers Jays are Local around the U.S. I think that because of the adult Peregrines in the immediate vicinity, they must be fledgling Peregrines OR Prairie Falcons. I had a Prairie Falcon as a kid. They look alot like my Prairie Falcon did. Bats typically fly at night. Falcons are daytime hunters. Never heard of "Bat Falcons", OR Brown Falcons. But then you don't know everything.
