A m8 of mine works at the BP in Grangemouth,last week he was up 1 of the cooling towers and there is a percy nest and he said the ledge below was full of pigeon legs with rings on 1 dating back to 96.this is where our racers end up.

I think it's well known to the local fanciers that there are peregrines in BP Grangemouth. When I first joined the club, a member told me about them, that they are watched, at that time that part of the Plant was fenced off, so workers couldn't get near them.

 

Interesting to hear about Chapelcross, the Nuclear Power Station at Innerwick on the East Coast is also said to have them nesting in window ledges on the Plant.
