has anyone looked anywhere else nearby? they could just be using the church as an alternative loafing site and actually nest somewhere else? just a thought based on some other elusive nesting pairs -- |

They used to visit and roost on the disused Malt Kiln but their visits there declined in line with their attendance at church John |

I assume there has not been a tree nest or ground nest in Lincs as yet? but most other suitable features seem to have been used -- Interesting report in a recent BB of a ground nesting pair in southern England |

A pair of Peregrines nested in a quarry in Lincs this spring and the young fledged successfully in May. For obvious reasons, those of us 'in the know' kept it all under wraps. Freddy |
