Here are documentary pictures that initiate the gallery of the Peregrine Falcon. I hope the gallery soon include other photos of this species of the better quality. The Peregrine Falcon appeared just once for a short while I was taking photos the European Ground Squirrel. The hope to take more pictures in the future is easy to fulfil, because the expanses inhabited by the Peregrine Falcon are wide, when one considers the map of the entire world. It is found in both Americas, in Africa, Asia, Australia and, of course, in Europe.

It was one chance encounter but pretty funny. The squirrel sitting motionless with its back turned looked like a long-eared owl. We took first photos and our hopes to photograph the owl got dispelled. So we have a few pictures from one place, several photos showing the squirrel’s mouth taken after we moved to the left, and this way  I can present on my website the first pictures of the squirrel.

This bird will give me a heart attack one day. It has happened a few times that, while I was walking in the morning, when it was still dark, through a field or along the edge of the forest, towards a hide, suddenly, from under my feet a pheasant flies up with a loud scream. It waits until the last second, hoping that it will stay unnoticed. Not only will it make a lot of piercing noise, but also fly right in front of one’s eyes. And it does not belong to small birds. It weight reaches 1.5 kilograms, and its wingspan reaches 80 cm.
