Orangepip Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 (edited) I don't do Facebook and I can't see any information on the NTU pages or the National Wildlife Trust site. Can you share the information on here please?

taxman Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Feeding time, a poor starling this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iansheff Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Not looked for a few days, just looked and no birds in sight so assume they are in the corner, how many of the eggs have hatched? Looked like there were 3 chicks last time I looked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikes10 Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 (edited) A Peregrine occasionally returns to the perch, but alas nothing appears to be happening in the nest box. Update, there is action in the next box!, the chicks are behind the leading edge of the box. Edited May 15, 2018 by Mikes10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxman Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 The chicks have been successfully ringed and the unhatched egg removed for analysis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DUFFEMS Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 The poor peregrine at Nottingham is still sitting on just 2 eggs. I haven't seen her leave for food, just noticed this morning when she stood up to re-position herself that there are 2 unhatched eggs. I know she laid her first one which was buried in the snow then laid again after, these are those eggs. No sign of the male and I haven't found any information about it all. Can anyone see any information (Facebook or other) saying what's happened? Regards, Duffems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst the birds keep incubating we're leaving well alone. If they abandon the nest we may remove the eggs for testing". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM01 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 (edited) I saw a falcon catch a bird (probably pigeon) over Crookes walking home - and it's now being fed to the chicks! Edit: And now all gone! Edited May 21, 2018 by PeteM01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
