Live Webcam: Watch Worcester Cathedral's newly hatched peregrine chicks

WORCESTER Cathedral’s live stream of its peregrine chicks has returned.

After a gap of over 10 years, a mated pair of peregrines moved into the Cathedral Tower in 2022 and successfully nested, produced and fledged four chicks.

They are back at the nest built by the Works Team again this year, and on Mothering Sunday, the female laid the first egg of the season.

There were four eggs in total and on April 26, the first chick hatched, closely followed by a second the following morning.

Fans can watch the chicks develop thanks to a live hi-res camera that will operate 24 hours a day.

“We hope there will be lots of milestones over the next few weeks: hatching, feeding, ringing and fledging, with lots of activity in between,” a cathedral spokesperson said.
