Two of this years young from a south Devon coastal site have been re sighted. One young female sadly found in a bad way in Plymouth and later PTS, and its sibling seen hassling an Osprey on the river Dart! @DevonOspreys

Despite a below average season for south Devon’s peregrines, we have managed to ring and DNA swab several birds, including 3 female chicks at a local quarry site. Great to see the staff so enthusiastic about the birds. 👍 #peregrine #quarry @_BTO

Unfortunately it’s been a bleak breeding season for peregrines in south devon, possibly due to above av. April rainfall. We’ve still managed to ring and DNA swab some of this years offspring to further our research and to help prevent chick theft. @_BTO @NTSouthWest @ScotGovSASA

Three healthy peregrine chicks ringed and DNA swabbed today near Torquay. This was a female chick, GR, weighing 1050g and a large tarsus-toe measurement at 118mm which indicates female (f over 110mm) @TorCoastCountry @_BTO @DevonBirds

We also DNA swabbed them for the national peregrine dna database, which means they and any future offspring can be identified as wild birds. This is to help combat the rise in the theft of birds from the wild for the falconry market. @RaptorPersUK @N_E_R_F @ScotRaptorStudy.
Today the 4 Eyasses were checked out and given their unique leg identification (GJ,GK,GL & GM) rings. Given that the adult male is a third smaller than the female, anyone like to guess the sexes for 2024?. @bbcsomerset @itvwestcountry @TauntonMinster
