Another Provincial Record?

[Bobby Kintanar]

I looked up my Kennedy Guide and this looks to be a Peregrine Falcon The guide states that it's not supposed to be found in Cebu, though. This shot was taken at Jugan Fishpond, Cosolacion, Cebu. It was flying really fast and high in he sky. Light was so flat, I could barely make it out. Can anyone confirm my ID?

Thank you for the info Godoski! I don't know if any Cebu BIrder has a photo of this bird yet, but I hope it comes back in better lighting conditions!

Thank you also, Ka Mastah. I was just lucky to be there at that time. :-)
