Juvenile Peregrine pursued by Arctic Skuas
I hear a loud Keeeeoww; a scream coming from above me. I manage to get its source in my viewfinder. It’s a juvenile Peregrine Falcon:

It’s being pursued by the pair of Arctic Skuas which nest on the grassy slopes overlooking the Atlantic Ocean here. They are unrelenting in their harassment:

I watch it fly off as far as I can see. I hope it will come back.

What an epic encounter.
