Nice photos! With the streaked breast and brown backsides, that should be a juvenile (1st year). I think that I saw the same bird a couple of times over the last two weeks at the same location.

I was out testing a new telephoto lens north of Point Isabel Wednesday and saw a Peregrine Falcon at least 200 feet away on a power line. I saw it several times between 12 and 1:30. I am wondering about its age, since it doesn’t match the photos of mature Peregrine Falcons. There were also about 25 Black Skimmers on the mudflats as has been reported recently.
Two photos of the Falcon and one of the Black Skimmers on Flickr.
