Ove the last week or so a huge mural has been taking shape on a wall between the Cathedral and the Silk Mill. Created by @faunagraphic artist Sarah Yates and instigated by Derbyshire Wildlife Trust as part of its campaign to make the city greener and wilder, the mural reminds everyone who sees it that urban wildlife can be fascinating as well as good for our urban wellbeing.
The Peregrine Project team has been pushing for something like this for years and now it has happened!
If you are in Derby anytime soon, do please go and have a look at it! And you can listen to an interview about it on BBC Radio Derby here;

How wonderful, hope it proves to be popular.Thank you.
An amazing work of art which is unfortunately too far away for me to visit in person!
Has anyone seen the peregrines lately? Has avian flu killed them?
Hi David: both the male and female have been seen today so you can relax.
Cheers
Nick B for the project team
