De Mortel: Pa preening
What Zenmasters they are, our peregrine falcons. The way they seem to achieve states of deep relaxation and meditation when they perch. They sit for hours and hours just on their perchplace looking into endless depths of wisdom.
Watching a peregrine like that makes you wonder.....
Our Pa was sitting in the entrance of the nestbox for 2 hours, just watching the clouds go by, doing nothing. Then he started preening, a bit of preening oil here, a bit of manicure there and back to the meditative state. Wonderful creatures they are, peregrine falcons.

Derby: taking a shower
Great pics today of the Derby Falcon taking advantage of the rain taking a shower! Look at the way she shakes her feathers and having a big scrub!
