Not much activity when I first arrived with the male sitting on his favourite overflow pipe on the tower. No sign of the female.
The male then flew off and was not seen again before I left.
Shortly after the female flew in and perched on top of the cross. Obviously a good view-point for her but partially hidden for photographs. They can't sit right on top because the lightning conductor is in the way!!
What is amazing is that while all this was going on a rather mis-guided Stock Dove was walking around by the picnic tables being watched by the Peregrines!!
The Peregrines have been seen mating in the last few days and the female has been visiting the nest tray on the roof and has created a small depression at this end of the tray where the eggs will be laid.
