27th May 2010




The above shows the adult female feeding the chicks this morning with what appeared to be a feral pigeon. Yesterday's image shows that the chicks have been colour-ringed, as part of a national colour-ringing project on Peregrines, so that we are more likely to get further sightings.


Our adult female is also colour-ringed on her right leg. From this we have found out that she was ringed as a chick in 2006 in a nest on an inland cliff on the East Lancashire / West Yorkshire border.
