Falcons

For the third year in a row a pair of peregrine falcons have nested on the side of the BT tower in Ipswich and raised four chicks.

Results from post-mortem tests and assessment of the bird's stomach show it was killed by professional-grade chemicals. It was found dead in June. The States Veterinary Office has also reported that another bird of prey has been found dead this week.

A pair of Peregrine Falcons nesting on Norwich Cathedral have welcomed their first egg of the year.
