Tonight TV
Peregrines on TV TONIGHT - Thursday 4 Feb.
Barring some big breaking news story, there will be a feature on tonight’s BBC1 The One Show at 7pm about peregrines hunting at night presented by Mike Dilger and featuring Ed Drewitt.
Before Christmas Ed requested us to send the BBC some videos of our Derby Cathedral birds night hunting (eg the one in which a live woodcock is brought back to the tower after dark one winter’s night) but whether these will be used we don’t know.
It should be an interesting piece anyway…..
If you miss it you can usually see the programme on iplayer afterwards.

Judging by the feathers falling from above , I would think second bird eating a prey.
Good captures Kate, just visited to see him looking up & interested!
Been sitting far end for several hours past, occasionally checking up.
Having a stretch
On the Tray looking for my mate up above.
Often looking up these days, good capture Kate ... was most annoyed Saturday when I got some lovely vid footage of him doing this & lost it whilst editing! Grrrr
Doh!!! I was only thinking wish I did videos, often some lovely shots...
A few mins of vid from this morning but too far away in not good light ... although lovely to see the sun (lost the best bit, the flyaway, fumble fingers!!)
