Cartron Marsh,

John Tyner (Wicklow) |
Observer comments:
1 possible Peregrine Falcon was seen at Cartron Marsh at about 2pm on Sunday 28th March. It swooped down to the marsh and then seemed to have something in its talons. However I wasnt sure if maybe it was a falconer's bird as it looked like it had something attached to its tail as part of falconer's apparatus. It was definitely bird of prey of the falcon group.
Interesting sighting in view of recent reports of a possible escaped Barbary Falcon seen near Ballina, Co. Mayo |

An excellent article on the identification of different subspecies of Jackdaw from Dutch Birding is here. |

Looking very well, he may be fishing in the lake. |
