The Peregrines took a lot of time this weekend to dive bomb the grumpy neighbours the Ravens ….perhaps now they both have eggs they will concentrate on raising their young it was fascinating to watch they do have respect for one another….this photo really show the difference in size of the male and female….!!
Easter Day Egg makes number four laid at 0.37am…..well done Mrs Perry….!! Happy Easter Everyone!!!
It’s always more difficult for the boys but this young Male is not very good at getting three eggs under….what would he do if we have four…..the problem is they are so much smaller than the female who is rightly made for this particular job…..but he tries to help out…..!!!
Third egg was laid at 4.35pm today just in time for Easter with luck we will have one more egg over the weekend….!!
At 12.55 there was a second egg and here is the picture…!!
Second egg at 12.55 pm we are out and about at the moment so photo later.
It’s a waiting game but I would hope we get a second egg in the next 24 hours…. This is Mum looking after her egg…..We sold out of the book for the second time so have decided to go for a third print…. if you are interested send us a message to the email address below it is £12.99 plus postage and packing at £3.00….

I was quite surprised but very pleased first egg…..9.55 am the clock has not updated its self ….great news….the story continues !!
A keen and successful hunter ….let’s hope he knows that spring is in the air…
Things are going well with both birds going to the nest box but no mating at this point so still a little while until we have eggs I feel…..to the best of our knowledge the Ravens are now sitting on eggs and keeping a very low profile !
