This year i climbed a 100ft tower in a vast chemical park on the banks of the Humber estuary to film peregrines in their nest. These formidable falcons have been raising their chicks inside this harsh industrial setting. This footage is taken from a surveillance camera hidden inside their nest and shows the chemical park at nightfall. After analysing the prey remains in the nest, I discovered the peregrines had been feeding on little grebes, among other migratory birds. This told me that the peregrines had to be hunting at night, possibly by the light of the illuminations shown here.
