LROS had a Peregrine watch to day at Leicester Cathedral.
Busy morning showing people the adults that never moved off the spire all morning and the 3 juveniles did have a fly around then went back to their breeding platform on the spire. #LROS #VC55 #KRIII #Leicestercathedral

Leicestershire and Rutland Ornithological Society successfully launched two Tern rafts this morning onto Swithland Reservoir.
Thanks to all that was involved. Within 15 minutes of Andy and Josh returning to shore there was a Common Tern on one of the rafts forming a scrape, result!
