Please can you name them, I was told when I took the pics but have forgot already, a Senior moment.

Hello Jaybee not to sure myself but pics 1 & 2 look the same bird and looking at the books it looks like a Merlin,
Pic 3 to me looks like a Kestral, still getting my head round this identification lark myself but no doubt someone else with more experiance will be along shortly either to confirm or put me right ,nice pics by the way especially like pic 1

First two look like juvenile peregrines, and I would say the last is a jack merlin

I would go with

1. Saker or hybrid of some sort
2. Peregrine or hybrid
3. Merlin

Not seriously expecting any of those to be correct

Knew I was no good at this game think I will go back to bed

First 2 the same peregrine (falcon), and a jack Merlin

Thanks for your help guys, I was at a show and there were only four birds and one was a tawny owl, the other three were Merlin, Peregine and Sparrowhawk, so i'm sorted thank you.

1 and 2 are a Lanner Falcon (if not some sort of hybrid, which is common in falconry)
3 is a Merlin

Cheers,

Adam

Guess we have to agree to differ again! The second looks like a different bird (agree both look like Peres though - first impression on the first bird was rather Sakerish but light playing tricks and obviously since the IDs were already given by the original poster, they are obviously not Sparrowhawks or Merlins!
