ally mac Posted November 8, 2020 Report Posted November 8, 2020 Percy, Sparrow hawks, buzzards and Sea Eagles here on a daily basis. Percy was into the doos the other day but if was a half hearted attempt. Thd sparrow is into them on a daily basis but itz days are numbered. Buzzards and eagles obviously aren't an issue.
Mossgiel Posted November 8, 2020 Report Posted November 8, 2020 Cock peregrine still going about here, hen left the area a few months ago.

good dooer Posted November 9, 2020 Report Posted November 9, 2020 Let some youngsters out for the first time on Saturday. They were scattered all over the skies by a sparrowhawk within five minutes of making it out onto the roof of the loft. Got 5 back the same day. Another two on Sunday Morning. Four back today. Still three missing. I’ve seen two of them scooting about roof tops in the area. I’m like mother hen who’s lost her chicks. Cracks you up. It’s been a quiet few months since the breeding season ended, regarding the peregrines. But the ones that migrate to the estuaries for the winter are starting to arrive. I see one nearly every day over Dalgety Bay.
