I lived in Belper for years and am dead chuffed there are peregrines there now. There are some good nesting sites in sight of home so some here would be really good. It’s only a matter of time :-)

We have several families of starlings, probably numbering about thirty. In a garden of three metres by eight metres, the noise is deafening.
We’ve had to close the patio door, not just to keep the noise out, but we’ve had two young birds fly in one door and try to fly out through the other closed glass door!

(Wrong dimensions. Five metres by twelve metres, but still noisy!)

Starling overload here too!
there were dozens on the green this morning and several families showing the fledglings around the feeders in my garden- none in the house yet, but eldest's car is going to need a wash!

Great tits put in a mammoth shift today between our feeders and their nest. Praying they are successful

Thanks for sharing those peregrine pics DT.

Starting me thinking (again) that I need a new lens to get anything close to those.

Last night's run got interrupted by watching great tits feed the young in their nest, and then later by cuckoo hunting. Reckon I must have been within 10 meters of the it and still couldn't find the bugger in the foliage!

Finally.

Single.

Bit battered in the wind.

Swift!

We’ve just seen a Red Kite fly over the house in deepest, darkest Coventry.
