Young falcon from Peljesac
This is the young falcon (hawk) that was saved by members of ‘Sveti Ilija’ mounteneering club from Orebic at Peljesac Peninsula.
Once it recuperated from injuries, the falcon was released back to the nature .
Have a look at photo of owl the same people saved few years ago + check an interesting thread about raptor migrations around Korcula
