Peregrine Falcon "Falco Peregrinus"

Peregrine Falcon "Falco Peregrinus" on the South Devon coast. This bird is the male or 'Tiercel', so called,according to some, because every third bird in the nest is a male,or according to others, because the male is a third part less than the female 'Falcon'.

Taken using my Digiscope Set-up to ensure the bird was not disturbed.
