Hello Neil, I'm not to worried about the sparrowhawk I'm well prepared for them, my problem is Peregrine's, they usually pay a visit just when the ybs are just getting a bit more confidence & we have breeding pairs within a mile radius near me, to be onest there's not a lot I can do about that.
I'm hoping that the local population of ferrals will take a hit as plenty about for sparrowhawk & peregrine.
Regards Dave.

I do think we should consider starting maybe last Saturday in April and going in a couple of weeks with ybs for those that are keen

Should go back to the good old days start late April and two weeks off before young bird racing starts

Mine have been getting out all winter, locked them up middle of January, that's them until the first week in April.
