If you were hoping for full streaming audio and video I'm afraid we can't offer this right now, but are grateful to Media on Demand who kindly helped us bring live a/v last year. Unfortunately our equipment that we installed inside Derby Cathedral simply wasn't up to the task of sending them a reliable image stream to redistruibute, and so the service proved very unreliable and unsustainable as a result.Peregrine Project Member (Nick M.)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08206815980511978659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-517644049991406941.post-67399979182751223292009-03-27T14:01:00.000+00:002009-03-27T14:01:00.000+00:00Can someone please tell me how to get the peregrin...Can someone please tell me how to get the peregrines live on camera.

We have had Pigeon fanciers on this blog who despise the Peregrines for obvious reasons. Their contributions have sparked interesting discussions. Also, this project would probably not exist if it were not for the UK government(s) protecting the Peregrines with conservation laws. Others have contributed to interesting and educational debates about other protected species; persecution; egg collectors, etc etc.<BR/><BR/>I recall also this blog straying into areas regarding badgers last year. A highly emotive and political matter in the UK regarding an animal which is protected but on the cusp of being culled because of the demands of farmers regarding bovine TB.<BR/><BR/>Sorry, but politics are always involved in every area of our daily life. <BR/><BR/>*puts soap box away*<BR/><BR/>:)<BR/><BR/>PS.
