Dear Wiki Leaks, Sorry to break the news. You have errored in labeling this video a 'Feeding Peregrine.' You have been mislead. It is a Sharp-shinned Hawk not even in the Falco genus. It is an Accipiter, and not a large one like the Goshawk (closer to a Peregrine in size.) I am a former falconer and hawk hunter for other falconers. I would have been sued if I returned with this species rather than a Peregrine. Please seek out a credible ornithologist to corroborate my identification. Michael

OK, Michael, I'm convinced. I shall fix this. Thank you. -- WikiPedant (talk) 01:30, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
OK, this file has now been renamed and the image has been recategorized. -- WikiPedant (talk) 18:24, 6 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
