Correction: my "peregrine" yesterday was a Brown Falcon, as kindly
pointed out to me by list members.
My instant id was biased by my interpretation of the, to my eye,
very bold, facial marking and colouring, and the impression of a
slaty grey back, perhaps resulting from looking at it into the sun.
It flew off very fast and downward out of sight so I missed other
indicators.

on towards Tidbinbilla (in the pine plantings area), a
Kestrel, and, surprisingly to me, a Peregrine (atop a young
pine tree but letting us stop the car to watch
briefly-directly into sun).
