Chichester Peregrine Blog

Here are some images from todays mating (www.LukeDrayWildlife.co.uk)

The pair mated eariler and mum is still showing well on the nesting turret. I will upload the mating series later.

Usual activity at the moment clearing up the nest and managing the scrape in glorious sunshine. Hopefully eggs in the next two weeks or so. Picture below of the nest, many apologies for the poor quality but hopefully the problem with the camera will be sorted in the next week.

There is a new page on this Blog which simply has a link to the webcam.  We have done this to make life easier for everybody.

You can access the page top right hand side of the Blog.

Enjoy!

Don’t worry will will keep on top of the issues of the poor quality picture!

The webcam is now live so we can watch Mum and Dad as they make a scrap for the eggs and generally tidy up. For ease of access there is a direct link from the Home page of this website which is labelled as a ‘test’ due to the poor quality.

Apologies for the picture quality – sorry but we have no control over this and the RSPB are on the case. We have been assured they will do all in their power to sort it out before it really matters.

We will keep you posted.

Taken a long time to put this up but both were in and out of the nest turret on this occasion

As yet we do not have a date for the camera to be switched on but as soon as we have a link to it we will let you all know.

Mum and Dad have been displaying and mating over the last few days, this means it could be another good year! If you are passing the cathedral take a look. Also don’t forget the RSPB Date With Nature starts in the 12th April.

Mum and Dad ave been very vocal around the Cathedral for a while now and also mating so we are hoping for another successful year.  Check here for all the latest information.

Don’t forget the RSBP tent will be at the Cathedral from 12th April.

Both male and female peregrines have been seen this year sitting on the Cathedral and heard talking to each other a lot so it seems we are set for another season of peregrine watching!!

Pictured below: the male sitting in his favourite place on the top decoration of the spire, from where he can see the harbour and the downs, and the female was sitting below on one of the smaller pinnacles.
