If you haven't been to one of our meetings why not come to one? You may really enjoy it and you will get much more out of your RSPB membership by joining a local group. A warm welcome is always assured.

LINCOLN'S PEREGRINES
In 2007 peregrines nested for the first time on Lincoln Cathedral. The nest site was on the south side of the main tower where the birds successfully raised three young. In February, 2008, a tray was fixed to the nesting ledge to provide more security for the young birds and a video camera was fitted to overlook the tray. However, the birds have ignored the tray and nested in the opposite corner so no video images are currently available! The two photographs below show the tray and the video camera. Information about viewing the peregrines at Lincoln Cathedral during May and June 2008 can be found on the national RSPB website:
