Lee Mount

Two juvenile Peregrines late morning. They drew my attention by the 'racket' they were making ! (described in English (if that's possible)a..... 'rehk' 'rehk' 'rehk' ,

Binoculars to the fore....one was carrying prey, maybe a pigeon sized bird with longish legs trailing underneath and guess that's why they were squabbling (?) I still can't be sure what the prey was, the prey looked dark which would normally put a wader as questionable then wondered about a Moorhen. I shall never know.
They both flew off still 'rehk'-ing in the direction of Dean Clough / Town Centre.
