The photos for this slide show were taken on the remote camera 5 at Race Rocks, by Pam Birley operating the camera from Great Britain. Pam had observed the peregrine falcon on various perches around the island in the mornings for several weeks in October and November. Her persistence paid off on November 17, 2005. Pam wrote in her e-mail ...."Today we had just returned home .. I just came up to the computer, switched it on and there was Perry with his breakfast....I really caught him in the act of devouring his prey today.! "You may see other pictures that Pam has taken using the remote camera at Race Rocks by clicking here to go to her photo album .

The prey is likely a Black Turnstone, a bird which is common throughout the winter on Great Race Rock Island.
