In the heart of Manchester, an amazing wildlife spectacle is taking place.
A family of peregrines
has made its home high above the city’s bustling streets. These agile
birds of prey are the fastest
birds in the world, reaching speeds of up to 180 mph in vertical dives. When
they’re not catching
prey to feed their chicks, the city’s new residents can be seen perched
on ledges of the tallest buildings.
Pond creation is a great way of attracting wildlife into your back garden, school or park. Even the smallest amount of water is greatly benefical as a place to drnik, take refuge or breed.
