First peregrine egg hatches in Worcester!

Available for over a year

Hear what happened as the first chick was born at the top of Worcester Cathedral, to its viral peregrine parents, Peggy and Peter. Malcolm Boyden speaks to Chris Dobbs, Biodiversity Advisor for Worcester Cathedral, who explains why we can expect the next chick to hatch in a couple of days rather than all at once, and how long it will take until the new-borns attempt their first flying lessons!
