A distraction but a welcome one.
Hi everyone , Yes its me , appolgies for dropping off the radar yet again!
I've been given the task of assessing- rehabilitating a very nice Peregrine
female that got herself tangled in netting on the side of a building about four
weeks ago . Having worked with wild disabled peregrines before she was
handed to me put right if I can. She smashed up six of her primary feathers
on her right wing and three on her left and cut her patagial tendon on her
left wing. She's coming on nicely but won't be released this year and needs
a good moult befor its possible to go back. I also have to teach her to hunt!
Also had the chance to go to Skomer (see my blog for full story)
so attached are the sketches and some photos of the Peregrine.
