Peregrine hit and miss...

["michael norris" <>]

Laurie asked about various Richmonds, but forgot Richmond, Tassie!

Anyhow I asked Akso about which Richmond and received this:

"Sydney,  Oooooops. Sorry  Akos :)"

Incidentally my most dramatic view of a Peregrine was in Beaumaris  (SE 
Melbourne)  in 2003 when one was chasing a Sulphur-crested Cockatoo.  The 
cockie landed on some power lines (doing a somersault?) and the Falcon went 
round low behind some houses and made another attack.  I'm not sure when the 
cockie was but it headed straight towards me, talons lowered, but passed 
5-10m overhead.
