So sad. But yay to the new link. Can’t wait to watch
So they think the new bird is a young male. What happened to last years female?
I do hope this year is a success. Last year was quite traumatic
The female is the same as last year, she somehow survived the flu. So she’s back to try again.
There was a falcon in earlier this evening and a pigeon dicing with death this afternoon.:ohmy:
I couldn't find the pigeon Darksky. What was it doing?
13.52 Fishman.
It was just having a mooch.
LOL well even though we know pigeons aren't the Einsteins of the bird world, to investigate a Peregrine's nest site isn't the cleverest move that woodpigeon has ever made. He'd have been toast if she'd returned.
Lovely view of her starting around 06-38am. I see she's already made the scrape for her eggs. Such a beautiful bird.
OK well the female peregrine is in fact an entirely different bird to last year. Something to do with a leg ring.
