An Interesting Morning at Work

Arriving at work this morning, I was pretty sure I heard a Grasshopper Warbler 'reeling' in the trees behind the reeds at the north end of the campus, but I've had no recent experience of them to go on.

On my way home through the city I decided to have a look for the Peregrine Falcon on the Newton Building and, sure enough, one was up there perched on a high ledge. I watched it for about twenty minutes hoping it would take flight in pursuit of a pigeon, but the best I got was a stretch of the wings and a little stroll along the ledge.
