Falcons at Grey Mare's Tail:



The Grey Mare's Tail peregrines have had another successful year, despite the very wet spring that badly affected many peregrine nests elsewhere in the UK. These three chicks, seen here with Alan Moores (NTS Recruiter & Volunteer), David Foreman (Volunteer) and George Smith (Bird Ringer), fledged in mid-June but are still seen regularly flying over the Grey Mare's Tail car parks.
