Sean, i crop an image what looked like the PF at 3 oclock on spire, but it looks yes you are right the falcon. we dont really have them here as a rule as we are low lying country, they prefer high buildings and cliffs.
So i dont know if it was introduced here by someone, to control the ever increasing population of flying rats, or it just flew by, but like i say its a rarity where i live.

Nope they are wild Alan. I'm in Norfolk too. They are only the 2nd pair in 200 years for the county.

These are about the sharpest photos I've seen from this camera. It seems likely that you are improving your ability to use it, with all the practice you've been getting. It took me some time to get the best from my HX1.
When I first saw the shot you're discussing, I thought that it looked like a falcon perched there. But, I dismissed the idea and figured it was part of the structure.

LOL, i thought you said that the other day stephen.
It did not even cross my mind about the falcon, until recently someone mentioned it. They are not native to our parts and like seans reference to the BBC article it mentioned the fact its been 200 years since they were in abundance here in Norfolk.

Well, assuming an average exposure time of 1/100 of a second, that's only 50 seconds of shooting - less than a minute.
Less than a minute! - wow! - you must be a fast learner!
