Today I managed to get a Red-footed falcon for the first time, a bird I’ve wanted for years. This is a juvenile bird just across the border in Southern Ireland. It’s a juvenile and incredibly tame around humans. What a STUNNING bird!
A bit of a video of the juvenile Red-footed falcon. Being a young raptor it is totally not worried about humans and the farmer herding his sheep in the background didn’t bother it.
It was well worth the trip up to the Cooley Peninsula, Co. Louth yesterday evening to see the stunningly tame Red-footed Falcon as it caught insects in a field, eyeing them up from the telegraph poles and wires.
