On a cold and frosty morning two peregrines were present one adult and one juvenile.

Roost at night
It is quiet difficult to see the youngsters during the day now but they still come in to sleep on the Cathedral at night. The pictures below were taken one evening about two weeks after the RSPB had finished their viewing station. The youngsters learning the ropes!

Tea on the lawn!
Female 65 decided not to waste the food dropped earlier. We had only just arrived and were treated to her having her ‘tea on the lawn’. This is very unusual to see especially in such a confined space. Glad to say all those who happened upon us were reverently quiet!!!

After creating a reasonable amount of mayhem our young lad settled briefly for a little rest!

Flying, food passes, fun!!
Over the past few days and evenings we have seen some spectacular flying by our juveniles and parents.
In these 2 images below you can see an adult tempting one of the girls to come and get some food. She takes the bait and tries her luck but fails this time.
Female tempting juvenile female to fly after food
The juvenile 65 tries to take the food from her mum
The following images show our three juveniles playing in the sky and then one tries to catch food dropped by the male. This time was not successful but later in the evening when the light was very poor this youngster succeeded in catching dropped food!
The male 62 at the top and female juveniles 65 and 63 below.
Missed this time but not later
