All chicks are doing well!

The PF's chicks are starting to lose their white down feathers and are growing fast. I hope to get some decent shots of them soon but the problem is the adults don't like me being there and I have no intention of disturbing these birds just for a photograph. The Kestrel chicks are flourishing as you can see from this picture below. The parents are bringing voles to the nest very regularly which is great to observe.

A surprise discovery?

Not only are the Peregrines doing well but very near by I have discovered another bird of prey doing well too?

Great news! We have 2 chicks!

Having left them alone for a few weeks I was delighted to see the chicks this morning when I visited! I would say they are about 1 week old and still very much in their white down feathers. I will now be keeping a very close eye on them so watch this space.
