Amazing, and how lucky can you be!? I envy you for the shots you are able to get in our backyard of the most beautiful place! Thank you for sharing this. Sadly, they also need to eat, and nature is brutal. But they play such wonderful and important roles in our society and nature. We visited another bird of prey sanctuary in the Drakensberg and they also had some peregrine falcons there. Incredible birds!

No need to be envious, as you also take some great shots when you are here. The most beautiful place indeed. We also used to struggle with nature's brutality, but thankfully it is always a quick kill, and we have learned to accept it as part of the eco-system.
Some guys over here rescued an injured Sparrow hawk, and the hawk will survive because its wing was not broken. They took it to the same place where we took a crow with its entire right leg ripped off. Sadly, they had to put it down.

That is sadly something we need to accept, that life is brutal. But everything needs to survive, and that in itself is also beautiful. Sorry for all of the rapid replies. I have some time to catch up on all of the backlog comments.

Oh yeah, you almost sent me a book of replies. Nature has its ways and many times we cannot understand it, but eventually the logic will dawn on us.
