Falcon in Flight

Here is a fantastic photo of a female falcon trying to scare us away from her territory. The small lump on her back, between her shoulders is the radio transmitter we attached so we could track her. This photo is somewhat unusual because she is against the sky. They usually attack from such a low angle, that the picture catches them against the ground and they blend in. This high speed shot caught her quite clearly.
