The attached photos were taken in Hat Yai Thailand on October 11 at about 2 pm on a rainy day. The two birds flew in together and stayed as long as I was there, about an hour. They may still be there on top of comms tower.
I think it is falco peregrinus ernesti given the full black sides of the head, but that is, I believe, most unusual this far south. I considered Oriental Hobby but I do not think they have the baring on the breast colour like these do.
I would appreciate confirmation or correction. Also any comments about wheher a male and female or adult and juv appreciated.
Thank you
Steve
