I'm in the right place then when I head for my bus - I'll keep keeping an eye out. Would be a lifer for myself.

Less pylon action
Recently the Peregrines have been only seen 1 at a time by myself out the M6 side of the FD building. Much more often seen on the car park side (where the nest boxes are). With the Sheffield birds having laid 2 eggs now maybe this quieter period suggests our FD birds might also have a broad starting.

Hi
I found out from a contact today that there is a guy working for Urban Splash - Nick Batt, who worked with RSPB to get some camera equipment installed on the nest a few years ago. When they didn't breed successfully the project fell through and no screen was connected. Apparently all the equipment is still there to connect a screen to the nest cam though.
I don't know whether it's worth catching up with Nick to find out the latest or any future plans? I also note that your office is moving so don't suppose its worth pursuing now?

my last day at FD
This is my last day at FD and just had my last little lunchtime walkabout. Nothing much to report unfortunately. Hopefully the Pererines will have an eye kept on them still and someone might spot a juvenille if were lucky.
Moving to the centre so hopefully therell be plenty to see still with the bt peregrines and citys kestrels amongst the rest.
Happy birding!

Saw them the first time today. Just missed one feeding the chick. A builder was watching me and giving me looks like I was planning a robbery with my binoculars out.
Going again on Tuesday so will keep "just got to get some bits from the van" and come back on here and let you know.
