Beautiful bird in flight shot with great action and detail.  This bird is fast that they are virtually impossible to photograph. To catch one mid flight in action with its prey is amazing.

Nice detail and prey capture by the falcon, Richard.

Not to get too gory, but notice that the falcon has the head of the little bird in its beak

Lovely shot and capture. Love these action poses after it has caught something.

Getting one in flight...awesome. Getting one in flight with prey......priceless. Well done.
