Peregrine Falcon, female. Small crop

Not such a great image because the bird is facing the wall, so the best I could do was to show the bird preening. The winter light was wonderful. I Traveled from my home in Salford to the west of the county and when I got off the train the heavens opened. I had the option of returning home or taking a 1 1/2 mile walk and getting drenched. I chose to get drenched but when I got to the site the rain clouds cleared to cast a shaft of winter light on the church where both Peregrines were perched. This is the female of a breeding pair and my previous upload was of the male.
