Here's a juvenile peregrine from the New Jersey Palisades Cliffs overlooking the Hudson River and NYC, 500 feet elevation. It was banded by NJ Fish and Wildlife ( June 2008) before it had fledged. I captured this image within a week of fledging. Most of my shots of the fledgelings are with the leg bands visible, but this is one of the few shots I have without the bracelets in view. Shot in steady rain, I cloned out some oof rain drops. 40D, 500 f4 plus 1.4x, iso 640, f5.6, 1/320 shot in Aperture Priority from tripod/ ball head. The BGD is distant cliff walls.
