There's been a flurry of Peregrine sightings around the lockdown patch in recent months with mostly singles but a pair on one occasion and also birds day-resting and indeed roosting on the local church. The night before last saw a bird coming in an hour before dusk flushing out a number of Starlings and pigeons whilst today a bird was perched up and visible from the bedroom window. My authorised walk today took me round and stood just below the bird, an adult female although maybe not too adult, say 3cy ish. It did enough stretching to show that sadly it's not ringed. Shame it's not really permissible to go round with scope and tripod; it would be a real frame filler!! Still, if it sits up like this again and the weather holds out, I might be tempted to try for a few photos.
Frustrating to hear that yesterday's eagle, IOW bird G324, was again seen north of the haven by a few people and that AR also had Red-rumped Swallow at Posbrook. I definitely chose the wrong place to live. Those back in Sussex, and with a change of wind, are now getting some sea-watch action unsurprisingly; just how long can you loiter under COVID19 restrictions.
