Tour Scotland Photographs Peregrine Falcon Highland Games Glencarse Perthshire

Tour Scotland photograph of a Peregrine Falcon at the Highland Games in Glencarse, Perthshire, Scotland. The peregrine is a large and powerful falcon. It has long, broad, pointed wings and a relatively short tail. It is blue-grey above, with a blackish top of the head and an obvious black 'moustache' that contrasts with its white face. Its breast is finely spotted. It is swift and agile in flight, chasing prey. The strongholds of the breeding birds in the UK are the uplands of the north and west and rocky seacoasts.
