The latest news from our Date With Nature projects around the UK. 

Chichester chicks get ready to fledge...

....and we hope they'll be doing it in style on our television screens, with the arrival of roving Springwatch reporter Gordon Buchanan and his camera to the viewpoint tomorrow.Juvenile peregrine in flight

All four peregrine chicks are doing really well, having spent the last few days frantically flapping their wings to build up their muscles.

Their parents are also doing their bit, squawking their heads off and flying around the turrets, as a way of enticing the youngsters from the nest.

If all goes as it should, the chicks first perilous flights will be featured on Springwatch next week. But to make sure you don't miss any of the action, join us at our viewpoint for stunning views of the majestic peregrine falcons of Chichester Cathedral.
