120-km natal dispersal of a female Peregrine of Bükk Mountains

Peregrine nestling

I took this photo of a young female Peregrine after it had been ringed by Miklós Váczi in the Bükk Mountains on 14 may 2008. The colour ringed bird has recently been identified as the female of one of the breeding pairs in the Pilis Mountains over 120 km west of its natal territory. More info (in Hungarian) and pictures can be found on madarvilag.hu.

Thanks to Mátyás Prommer and Lotár István Molnár for the information.

Regards,   András
