AF our female sitting tall and proud….she flys like an angel now too….!!

Another one from yesterday as food comes in one of the boys tries to take it…! Very poor light but lots going on all are fit and well and flying beautifully…..!!

The boys and girls come out to play….terrible light but all three love to play…..a very enjoyable day….!!

All three are flying well now the boys are always up for a game taken this pm in glorious light.

Please read the whole of this post…..Thank you.

After all the drama of the last 24 hours our female is safe and well and fledged and extremely well fed…..she is the one on the left!!! As a footnote to this the transmitter on the cathedral appears to have failed as they are unlikely now to return to the box a decision has been taken by all parties involved to turn the camera off….fixing it may have caused disruption to the birds so it is better to call it a day …..we will be posting pictures of their antics on a regular basis….Thank you for all your support

So early today we had a call from the Cathedrals builders to say a young Peregrine had landed in their yard and could not get up .She had found refuge in an old box and a skip….we arrived accessed her ….she was fine just very wet and returned her to a safe position up the spire. Many Thanks to the Cathedral staff and to Colin Vanner who was working for the cathedral and called us .She is now completely safe and well and safe on the cathedral tower .

Incredible sequence of pictures taken by Karen Curnow yesterday shows the very first food pass of the season ….I don’t think I have ever seen one so early in the season ,Mum passes food to AG. Up until 5.30pm today our girl AF had not fledged and had spent a good few hours asleep in the box with her brothers.

Lots of action today but our young lady has still not fledged up to 8pm this evening…..!

AG is the star of the show….!!

So this am sometime before 10am AH Fledged the other boy AF the young girl is still yet to fledge…..green tinge to the bird is reflection from the last part of copper roof all hinds of antics today AG star of the show but once again very poor light…..many people came visiting to see the birds and were not disappointed…..!!
