Yesterday morning I spotted this well fed female Peregrine ( Check out her full crop ' ) on cliffs along the south coast and I decided to wait and see if she might provide me with a reasonably close take-off sequence.
I sat there 'Watching her watching me' with my shutter finger poised to record a take-off for well over a hour before she finally tired of my company and departed

The final result is shown in the montage image below which records the take-off flight action in full detail over a period of less than a second :
