Allthough the new spring watch has not started i thought this may be of interest.On Tuesday 25/01/11 my wife and i watched from our kitchen window a Periguine Falcon devouring it’s kill in the middle of our lawn.This is not the first Falcon to be spotted in the garden because about two years ago a Hobby made a visit.We do not live in the country but on the outskirts of town which make these sitings quite unusual.
