With breeding season fast approaching these birds are staring to look their best and they really do look amazing with their spectacular plumage and head 'gear'

 

That ruby red eye is so characteristic and set among such gorgeous plumage makes these birds rather special.

Peregrine Falcon

 

The Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus), also known as the Peregrine, and historically as the Duck Hawk in North America, is a widespread bird of prey in the family Falconidae. A large, crow-sized falcon, it has a blue-grey back, barred white underparts, and a black head and "moustache". As is typical of bird-eating raptors, Peregrine Falcons are sexually dimorphic, females being considerably larger than males. The Peregrine is renowned for its speed, reaching over 200 mph during its characteristic hunting stoop (high speed dive), making it the fastest member of the animal kingdom. According to a National Geographic TV program, the highest measured speed of a Peregrine Falcon is 242 mph.

Enough birds on the photo from this cabin to spot birds, but they won't be that special I think.
