on the 16 January a team from the Urban Peregrine Project cleaned out the nest site on Norwich Cathedral Spire.  Amongst the debris was the head of a Teal!  Anyway the very next day the male Peregrine turned up. He's still about waiting for his mate.  Good luck to all these beautiful BoP this year.

That was my thinking but can't be totally sure.

The neck rotation whilst looking about is incredible, very owl like

OP

Watchpoint doesn't open until next week, slight delay due to weather.

My first attendance will be Friday, fingers crossed for hatching.

These birds have been on the spire all winter, this is definitely their home territory. 

In a previous year a peregrine bought in a headless Teal and dropped it at the feet of a tourist, quite spoilt her visit.

The Trust are putting a volunteer into the Castle to keep visitors informed via a large TV showing live coverage of the nest site.

Still didn't see the SEO at Oulton.
