I live in Brierley Hill - not too far away, and indeed was disgusted at the
trapping and killing of the peregrines. I would be interested in doing my bit to
guard the quarry.

Is there anyone interested in exploring the possiblilities of guarding
the quarry in Kingswinford where Peregrines were attacked last year?
You may have seen the tv news or the local papers when nests and eggs
and indeed the adult birds were attacked in both Cannock & Kingswinford.
I live in a road adjacent the quarry here in Kingswinford and had seen
the Peregrines earlier in the year when doiny my tetrad recording for
the BTO atlas. Unfortunately I was unaware of the danger they were in
and was deeply shocked when the report was shown. What if I had done
more? What an we do if the adults survived and return again this year?
Any ideas anyone?
