My first sighting of this lovely pair this year
Seems as if the silly Pidges from yesterday have moved on
Glad those pigeons have moved on, mind you that might be why the peregrines chose the spot - nothing like ready meals.
Ha ha Gaynor, good thing there are so many of them!
Hugging the scrape, egg coming?? Normal track record is from 16th onwards!
Can't decide if this is first egg??
Peregrine unconcerned & perches on girder
Well Wendy, not being in the know about these birds, I thought in the first video that an egg was underneath the one bird perched on the side of the "nest" Now it looks as if it has smashed or been trodden on, - - or do you mean the black blob small in the box?
From what I can make out on further observations of this bird Gaynor, the splodges in front of the nest are just where she poos, saw her doing it earlier! The blob in the nest which I couldn't at first make out ... don't think it's an egg, more likely some leftover prey or even a pellet! IMO
Earlier this evening I saw this Pidge pair chancing their wings again ...
They had wisely disappeared by time Peregrine pair arrived ... this is the current scene ...
Quick visit, still no egg, overdue by past records!
It's still here Wendy
Thanks, Richard. I'll have to follow this nest more regularly in the coming season.
What do you mean Richard?
