England / Sheffield - St George's Church - 2015 / ? & ?

Alison:
Four eggs have been incubated at the Sheffield nest, and the first chick hatched this morning.

Haven't seen the chick yet, but there is a good photo of the chick on the website.

This year, a second webcam was added, providing an exterior view of the nest and a panoramic view of the area. I have on occasion seen a peregrine flying in the distance, or perched near the nest.



Mom incubating yesterday (left) and Dad (right). Quite a size difference; they are both beautiful birds.
