While on the courtesy bus on my way to collect a hire car this morning a female Peregrine cruised over the Hire car Village. A nice start to the day.

This bird is primarily frequenting the Thomas Cook hangar. Staff have been instructed to keep the hangar doors open to allow the bird access.

Yes, we count all of it. The boundary is very jagged at the SE side and it would be impossible to say which little bits are in Cheshire. Leach's Petrel has been recorded there in recent years! Plenty of good records to be had eg Pied Wagtail roosts.
