A brilliant shot of one about to lay an egg ... probably first such in the Forum ... I'm afraid she looks it too ... terrific capture and observation Adrian ...tfs ...
 
Superb shot Adrian.........who can blame you for spending time with these beautiful birds.
 
That looks like a pregnant tummy, Adrian. I bet she will fly faster after laying the egg, LOL.
Cracking shot, and you will have much peregrine nursery work for the weeks to come!
