Norwich peregrines start courtship

Just when we thought it was all over, the Norwich peregrine falcon tale takes a new twist.

The father of this year's chicks and the lone female, responsible for the death of two of them, are showing courtship behaviour.

It's unlikely that they'll manage to breed successfully as it's too late in the year but the Hawk and Owl Trust thinks they could become a breeding pair in 2017.

The two surviving peregrine falcon chicks were taken into care to protect them from the female.
