Project to Preserve the Bavarian Peregrine Falkon

Meanwhile Pat is proud to be involved in a project to preserve the Bavarian Peregrine Falkon, which faced extinction due to the activities of nest robbers. Their nesting sites in Bavaria are now guarded and watched on video, which thankfully has resulted in a big increase in the Falkon population in Bavaria. On the 3rd of June Pat is playing a charity concert at the golf court in Sinzing (exit of the Regensburger Autobahn) with all proceeds going to this project.
Pat knows that many of his fans care deeply about project's such as this. Should you wish to help you can make a contribution to:

LBV Kreisgruppe Regensburg

Please help a dedicated group of people to preserve at least something for our children to also see in their natural habitat.

Best wishes to you all, and Pat looks forward to seeeing you soon!
