I can assure you that John Disney is still very much alive!

Dear All,

           I HAVE seen a black falcon,with the best will in the world I really doubt the latest sightings.But as the late great John Disney said "they got wings they can fly"In the past,I too had seen them here,well until I saw the real thing  in N.S.Australia.The dark phase B.Falcon is far more likely,I have seen them completely chocolate,sorry but I really don't think so!.Ask the Much Maligned Mark Clayton the real thing looks more like a Forest Raven than a falcon,but can they move!
