After I got home the local Herring Gulls were frantically alarm calling for over an hour but we couldn't see what was causing the fuss until, by luck, I was looking out of our window at 1330 and a huge, Gyr-sized Falcon, flew over. I couldn't see any colour against the bright sky but it is obviously an escaped bird. I'm pretty certain I saw it in similar circumstances a couple of weeks ago.
