How crazy is this?! I think it’s pretty rad and it’s not every day you get to soar high above the Jackson Hole Valley riding shotgun to a Peales Tiercel, or male Peregrine Falcon in layman’s terms. This is one of the birds from the Teton Raptor Center playing and chasing a Lanner Falcon. You can see the Peregrine turn it’s head, scoping out the Lanner. Word is that the Lanner also was wearing a camera and at times you can see the Peregrine flying below. Sure would be cool to see that footage too!!!
