This Thursday evening (27th May) at 7.30 pm there will be an online talk (webinar) about the Derby Cathedral Peregrine Project since its inception back in 2006.
Topics to be covered include how rare peregrines were and why, how the nest platform and cameras were installed, how the peregrines adopted the new 'des res' quickly, the extensive media coverage, the Watch Points, how the birds have faired over the years, how and why the chicks are ringed, what the birds feed on and finally the on-going problems that peregrines face elsewhere.
It is free but you do have to register for it here.

Hi there.. I really want to attend this event. I have tried to secure a place, but after I make my donation, the site says I have been timed out and my ticket has been released. I have done this twice now and I’m not sure if PayPal has taken 2 donations from me (I’ll check my account later - no time now!). Please advise...
Hi anonymous: please email the wildlife trust on enquiries@derbyshirewt.co.uk and we are sure that your problem can be sorted out.

Hello Gillmor class - you are very observant!
The chicks are indeed growing very fast and getting their feathers too.
Before too long they will be standing on the edge of the platform and flapping their wings!
