| Re: Strange bird
I'm convinced that this bird wasn't a Falcon of any sort. I might not have had as good a look as I would have liked but I did manage to get an impression of the bird. Call, flight, shape, none if it said Raptor of any kind that I know of.
I accept that captive birds could be different but I have trawled through my BWPi programme and played all the calls and none of them come close to this call.
Remember I have heard all the calls of the likely Raptor's that could appear in this country but when I first heard the call it was different enough for me to think "what on earth is that".
