Tombo Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 A PEREGRINE falcon was shot and found dead outside Derbyshire Wildlife Trust’s offices.The organisation said a photographer found the dead bird outside its headquarters in East Mill, Belper, and alerted its members - who took the peregrine to a vet.It said the vet x-rayed the bird and discovered the shot lodged in its shoulder. Further analysis confirmed this was a recent shooting and it was likely to be linked to its death.Tim Birch, Derbyshire Wildlife Trust’s head of advocacy and conservation strategy, said, “We have all been shocked at the trust by the shooting of the male peregrine at our headquarters in Belper."To have a wildlife crime happening right on our doorstep is both alarming and upsetting. Many people from Belper, and indeed from around the whole region, have been thrilled to watch peregrines around the mill where we work."We feel very privileged to have these birds living alongside us. We strongly condemn the shooting of this bird.”He said, on discovering the shot in the bird, the trust immediately reported the death as a wildlife crime and has worked closely with the police on the matter.Darren Belfield, who is working on the case for Derbyshire police, said, “Birds of prey, such as the peregrine falcon, are fully protected by legislation - which makes it an offence to deliberately kill or injure them. The perpetrators of this cruel and deliberate act have shown a clear disregard for the law surrounding this species.”Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.Read more: http://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/Peregrine-shot-dead-outside-headquarters/story-26106000-detail/story.html#ixzz3TGA41A68 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrivateDerby Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Scum, you'd have to be a good shot to take one of them down with an air rifle. Wonder whether they can get DNA off the pellet, doubt it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

froggg Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 I'd like to find them that shot it...... Anyway to better news... And then there were two! We've just seen signs of a second egg, which was laid at 19:30 local time. Once again our wide-angle nest camera captured the moment in sound as it fell to the gravel floor of the nest scrape. So the gap between eggs one and two was about 53 hours, ie just over two days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
