As the peregrine season draws to a close, Salisbury Cathedral is offering one last glimpse of its avian residents before shutting down the live stream.

In the last two weeks Rex, the only juvenile male hatched on the Tower this year, has been spotted on the South Tower Balcony parapet.

He and his two sisters have become proficient hunters after some intensive training given by their parents over the Close.

Hundreds of visitors were able to witness peregrine behaviour and see the birds up close thanks to the RSPB Date with Nature team, who set up their telescopes on the West lawn throughout June.

In recent weeks the juveniles have been ranging beyond the Close in search of food, with the Water Meadows and the fields around Netherhampton being popular hunting grounds.

Male peregrines generally stay close to where they fledge, so people in Salisbury may see more of Rex than Lily and Rose in the coming weeks.

Clerk of works Gary Price, who looks after the nestbox, said: “So far it looks to have been a textbook year. The chicks have pretty much stuck to their schedule. No one crash-landed when they fledged.

"The parents have been efficient and calm. We were sad when the fourth egg didn’t hatch, but other than that everything has gone like clockwork.”

The biggest challenge for the three young falcons will be making it through their first year.

Less than a third of juveniles reach breeding age and according to the RSPB their lifespan is likely to be between five and six years.

However, an essay on the Natural History Museum website mentions one falcon that reached the ripe old age of 21 years old.

One of the ways the Cathedral keeps track of the peregrines is via the coloured Darvic ring on their left leg, which bears their unique initials.

So far, four falcons have fledged from the Cathedral have been tracked: Peter (spotted in Hampshire), Aveline (spotted in Milton Keynes), Osmund (spotted in Guernsey) and Flo, who was spotted Hertford last year.

Flo had chicks this year, nesting on the Shredded Wheat Silos in Welwyn Garden City.

Photographer Keith Garrett captured the two juveniles earlier this month, perched near their nest box with Flo.

The live stream ends on Monday, July 17.
