They're deliberate releases. Called Wild Hacking. Falconers boot them out for a period at a spot, feed them in the evening then recatch them when they've trained themselves!

Aye I contacted a falconers FB page. They told me these birds are not lost, the owner knows exactly where they are. Our tagged bird from last Sunday hasn't been seen again, probably taken back in.
