  • Blog post: Three become two

    We only told you about their arrival on Wednesday , but there's some sad news from Cardiff I'm afraid. It seems that the last week of torrential ran and colder temperatures has taken its toll on the peregrine chicks and one of them hasn't made it. Luckily the two remaining chicks are looking...

We can't confirm whether the fourth egg has hatched or not, and many people...
  • Blog post: Lights, camera, action in Lincoln

    When the web connection went live at the Lincoln peregrines back in May, the team were really excited to see the peregrines were back and nesting on the south west corner of the cathedral tower.

  • Blog post: The hidden treasures in Aberdeen Harbour

    The has been full of ospreys and peregrines over the last few weeks, but the Bank Holiday weekend sees the arrival of a very different kind of Date with Nature.
