Ian sighted a falcon over the road today 10/05/2007 around the Hockery pub it had jessies trailing from its legs. flew over towards the cricket pitch.

Just a note to say the lost falcon has been recovered safely. `Skeet` (arabic for `Speedy`) was found in Preston last week. The owners would like to say `thank-you` to anyone who kept an eye open.

My dad has just `phoned me to say that a young lady has been round the houses asking had anyone seen their falcon which has escaped from the Whelley area of Wigan. It`s a Saker/Gyr hybrid (must be an impressive looking bird !) with its jesses and a red leash still attached. It is also ringed and fully registered. If you see it could you please contact KIM on 01942 700481 Cheers
