Bird traffickers: Scotland hunts down falcon thieves.
The peregrine falcon, one of Scotland's protected species, is facing a growing threat.
Smuggled to the Middle East for falcon racing, these birds can fetch a high price on the black market.
As demand grows, conservationists are fighting to protect them from an increasingly sophisticated illegal trade, while police are tracking down the criminals.
Mum has turned up to check on her baby who doesn't want to leave the nest.

The babies are getting quite active now and better at moving around.
They'll be getting into wing flapping and stretching a lot soon.
