Hi All,

These 3 Peregrine chicks are the first to have been reared in Suffolk for 200 years. I had to charter a fishing boat to get anywhere near them (still a good 150m away) and my plan was to get some record shots of their first breeding season for so long in Suffolk. I have images of the young, adults in flight and the adults bringing in food and sitting on the box, all in all one of the best days with my camera I have ever had

All comments welcome

Regards

Rob
