What a thrilling sight. Such a beautiful creature, with that powder-blue plumage shading to darker blue, and the big black eye, always seeing what we couldn’t hope to see. Is it waiting for its mate, or on the lookout for a rival, or potential prey even, though you'd think a Peregrine lifting off would make other birds flee. Anyway, a gorgeous shot Mali, thanks for sharing.
