Chichester Peregrine Blog

After a great deal of agitation and noise Mum got off the eggs and left the nest at 2.30 this afternoon. She returned a few minutes later and settled to brood again.

It’s turned in to a beautiful sunny day and if all goes to plan we will in the next couple of days see our first chick.

Expectant!

We are very figity this morning and no wonder it is nearly time for the first egg to hatch!

Figity!

The RSPB will open there viewing today in Cloisters Cafe gardens so go along and have a look it’s well worth a visit. You can watch the bird on patrol or watch and see the second sitting on four eggs on the large big screen. We of course are blissfully unaware this is all about to happen as it is 1 am in the morning and we are fast asleep. Good luck RSPB.

Fast asleep

Sorry for the delay in posting but we are still away with very dodgy Internet connection . However there are four eggs now the fourth egg was laid sometime yesterday afternoon.

Four eggs

It’s 5.55 AM and we have thee eggs!

Still only two eggs but very alert and keeping lookout!

On patrol

We have a second egg picture below.

Two eggs!

Thought  you would like to see picture of the first egg. It’s a beautiful sunny day at the cathedral but it’s a full 30 degrees warmer where we are at the moment go to the David Shaw Wildlife Blog To see our most recent pictures , or just carry on watching the Peregrines on the wonderful new camera.

First egg!

There is one egg a little late but the saga begins all over again!
