Summary of the 2026 breeding season so far. In around Jan / Feb a new male (no metal ring) was paired with the resident female, the metal ringed male has not been seen since. This new male and the female were seen copulating/ pair bonding. 28th March - 1st egg laid. 31st March - 2nd egg laid. On the 2nd April a dead female Peregrine was found in Southcourt, Aylesbury. She is believed to be one of an intruding pair that arrived in the town. On the 3rd April there had clearly been a huge fight and the gravel and the 2 eggs on the platform were displaced/ buried. A new male was seen wearing a red ring on his left leg. The battle for the nest site intensified over the following days, culminating in a massive fight on the platform on the 9th April. The resident male was ousted, and the new male with the red ring paired with the resident female, they were soon copulating. 2nd Clutch !! 28th April- 1st egg laid. 29th April - the female recovered one of the original eggs and rolled it into the scrape ! On this date- incredibly- a 2CY male was sitting on top of the box, observing the female. 1st May - now 3 eggs, another laid. 4th May - 4 eggs, another laid. Currently 4 eggs, which includes the recovered egg laid in March, the resident female and our new 'red-ringed' male.

On the platform seen on the webcam (is this a cheat?) Am I being too wishful thinking, or4 is it the female in what looks very much like she's incubating - is this another attempt at laying?.

At the County Hall platform, a male (the original one) just seen to bring a kill to female on the platform. It took just a few minutes to eat. She then went out of camera view but is clearly nearby as soft "clucking" calls still audible. Great to see, feared the recent intrusion was the end of this year's story.
