EDIT: 19 Feb 2025. Event over! 🚨No More Swooping Alert! 🚨

Applicable to the Larch Road Duck Ponds area only.

It's not just Falcons calling this place home—Kingfishers are here too! 🦅💙 They've been spotted swooping near the Duck Ponds on Larch Road, so you might want to take a different route with your furry friend. 🐶🚶‍♂️

No need to worry—it should all be back to normal in about two weeks, as their chicks have already hatched. 🐣✨ Stay safe and enjoy your walk! 🚶‍♀️🌿

Chicks have now flown the nest and moved on, this warning no longer applies. 19 Feb 2025.
