  • Blog post: Disappointment at Dove Stone

    We're sad to report that the peregrine nest at Dove Stone has failed this year. The female had paired up with a new male, a yearling by the looks of him, so we can only assume that something must have happened to last year's male. Things didn't go well right from the start, with the pair...
  • Blog post: Gorge-ouse Cheddar

    It's all go over at Cheddar Gorge at the moment. Cheddar Gorge's female peregrine chick is now almost 10 weeks old, she's fledged and she looks just like her mum (only bigger!). The guys on ground have sent over this fab picture of her being ringed by Ed Drewitt at 3 weeks old . ...
  • Blog post: Catch them whilst you can

    It's not only your last chance to see the Manchester peregrines this week, time is running out to catch a glimpse of our Scarborough family too. The chicks have spent the last few weeks learning important survival skills from their parents and are getting set to make their own way in the world. Our...
  • Blog post: Flapping heck

    Chicks regularly wing flap in the run up to fledging. It's normal behaviour, but can sometimes get our chicks into a spot of bother as we saw at our Argaty red kites date with nature recently. Our man on the ground, Mike, sent through the below compilation of images taken after one of the red kite...
  • Blog post: Now you see them, soon you won't

    This week is your last chance to see the Manchester peregrine chicks. Since they fledged back in June, they've been busy taking lessons from mum and dad on how to fend for themselves, but once they've learnt the necessary survival skills, they'll be off to make their own way in the world...

    With all three Glaslyn osprey chicks taking to the skies last week, it looks like the chicks up at Loch Garten won't be too far behind. There's been plenty to suggest that it won't be long now and you can read all about it over on the Loch Garten ospreys blog .
  • Blog post: Catch up with the Glaslyn fledglings

  • Blog post: All grown up

    Glaslyn chick number three is airborn! 79 took her first flight yesterday morning, so that's all three chicks fledged before any of our others.
  • Blog post: Up, up and away

    There's been another fledging at Glaslyn . The eldest osprey chick, 77, fledged yesterday at 1:05 pm. She's the second of the three chicks to take to the skies, with her younger brother, 78, fledging last week. There's just the youngest chick, 79, left to go. To keep up to date with all that's...
