Terry didn't claim an observation of a Grey Falcon.
He described a quick observation of a grey looking Peregrine Falcon. It appeared
to me from what he wrote to be well short of a clear decision either way but
either species is possible.

What is the proverb "Fools jump in where angels fear to

Apologies Terry, apparently Grey falcons have been seen in
the ACT before.
To me they are a rare bird of the interior, rarely seen, a
bird that doesn't exist according to the Big Twitch man (correct?), and one I
have trouble with when reporting any of my sightings to the Atlas
people. Of my 4 remote sightings over the years, they take a lot of
convincing that it was a grey falcon. To me an unmistakable
bird.
