During my stay I am pretty sure I saw a peregrin behind my mothers house. She backs onto the by-pass at Spondon. The first time it perched on a lamp on the central reservation and I was able to get binoculars out and look. I also think I saw it fly around on a couple of other days.

A peregrine landed with a large prey, which it then expertly plucked and consumed, closely observed by a second peregrine on the adjacent gargoyle. Both birds were clearly initially distracted by others flying past. The back feathers of the peregrine with the prey had a distinctly brownish tinge.
