Smile please, it's candid camera. (Falco peregrinus)

Off up in the hills again and I managed to get some peregrine shots, this is the first of a few that will be put on the gallery. It was just great to actually catch him looking me in the eye!! The bird was digiscoped at a distance of about 100 yards. I was using my kowa TSN4 with the Opticron HDF eyepiece. I have to say it is far better than the original Kowa item. The Opticron gives a wider fov and a brighter image which have of course really helps when digiscoping or just viewing. The eyepiece is also considerably better at the maximum zoom.
