A date with nature

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

Malham chicks fly away

We breath a sigh of relief at yet another successful season at Malham Cove - four peregrine chicks in the skies, and a host of special moments.

But, at the same time, there is sadness that we won't be in the stunning surroundings of the Cove talking to visitors, or seeing the owls, redstarts, flycatchers, wheatears and, of course, peregrines that have kept us company since Easter.

We had a rather wet end to the project, and mice have nibbled much of the equipment, but 20,000 visitors have enjoyed it all the same!

So, as we say goodbye to Malham Peregrines 2009, we will be keeping an eye on the birds through winter, and look forward to welcoming you all back in 2010.
