In Japan, it is a resident bird, classified
as a Endangered Group II (VU:Vulnerable) by the Ministry of the Environment.
We four, on 9th June, went out to take pictures of wild
birds to inhabit in the well-known mountain park valley among bird lovers, where
is away from 180 km from my home.
But the spot of the target in the valley was dark, and
the number of wild bird observations was only two kinds of, which was
disappointed us. So, on my way home, we stopped by a nesting spot for a
peregrine falcon.
There, we were able to take a lot of pictures of three
juveniles birds waiting got the feed from their parents.
The height of this rock is 64 m and the distance to the
target is about 70 m.
The focal length of the camera is 900 mm.
This rock is called kame-no- ko-no-iwa
,which mean a rock resembling a turtle.
