The peregrines may not be in view, but we know they are there.
A compilation video from last night – the first from the camera on the west walkway showing a snowstorm of feathers as prey is plucked somewhere above. The second, from the south walkway camera captures the moment the prey is dropped from above (repeated in slow-motion). It has been suggested that it's a Fieldfare, but if anyone has other thoughts, let me know.

Just heard that of our 3 juveniles last year, XVT and XTT are females, XXT is a male. Interestingly, of the 29 juveniles whose sex we know, 17 are female, 12 male.
