Shatterford

Last nite my Dad and I went down to Shatterford Bottom in search for the 1st Summer Male Red Footed Falcon that had been present all afternoon! When we arrived there was only a few Hobbies and some bastard biting midgies present and we found out that the bird had last been seen heading over the road therefore we strolled across the road to find it perched on a little bush, good views were held especially wen it flew passed at around 4oft but sadly the light was poor so only a very poor record shot was managed. We left around half 8 when we could see that the bird wanted to roost in a fir tree close to the road where we were stood.
