Peregrine Falcon: Tom and I were enjoying the free entertainment that the flocks of waders were putting on for us until they all took off at once and out of nowhere this female Peregrine swoop in and took a Sanderling (I think).
The highlight of the day was most certainly Hoylakes high tide wader roost, however it was very disturbing to see so many obtuse, thoughtless, ignorant DOG WALKERS just happily walking across the roost and disturbing the waders! Is this a case of uneducated folk who need the correct info or do these people not care? I mean if I saw a bunch of birders looking at a large flock of birds, or a small part of beach with thousands of flocking waders circling the skies waiting to drop back and roost I would think twice and walk on the path.
