Title: Nottingham Trent University Falcons
Post by: burakkucat on March 20, 2017, 07:47:41 PM: It is that time of the year, once again. Two eggs were briefly visible this afternoon.

Here is the link (https://www4.ntu.ac.uk/sustainability/biodiversity/falcons/index.html) to the site from which you can choose the webcam image to view.

Post by: burakkucat on June 10, 2017, 06:05:26 PM: It's been a while since any avians were visible. The ledge goes all the way around the top of the building and provides plenty of scope for investigations by the young. Today one came into view. Is it one of the parents or one of this year's new youngsters?
