Peregrine Falcon head features

This pic was nice at showing the the head of a juvenile Peregrine Falcon. Important field marks that can be seen in this pic are the blue cere and orbital skin--these change to yellow beginning in the winter of the bird's first year. Also the streaking on it's chest is a field mark for juvenile Peregrine's (while adults have spotting and barring). SeEtta
