I find things like this intresting personaly myself, some of you might also. But any way heres a live webcam watching a pair of Peregrine falcons nesting on the side of council offices building where i live in aylesbury and this is unusual as these birds normaly nest in the face of a cliff, also i might be wrong saying this but i belive this bird is or one of the fastest in the world, that can reach speeds of 200mph / 320kph ? maybe in dive it could.. dunno :P


Anyways if you are intrested or dont know what this bird is, have a look for yourself :)

Heres link to live cams

Lol nice Prai, our town centre is full of pidgeons and when these 3 chicks hatch im sure a few them will be going missing lol. Will be funny to see people come out side the shopping centre to find a pidgeon has been mutilated to bits on the pavement lol!

Climate change bringing these birds in land then?

I once had a pidgeon who lived outside my bathroom window. Used to feed him on the window sill.


Back to work...

I love peregrine falcons, we have a couple that have nested in local farmers barn and it's fascinating watching them hunting. As we live on top of a valley, so watching them swooping in for kill is brilliant.

There was some talk a few years ago, about integrating falcons in Sheffield city center to stop the over population of pigeons.
