Latest news on the peregrine falcons

All eyes are on Norwich Cathedral's spire as four peregrine falcon eggs have so far been laid this season!

The first egg arrived at 3.48pm on Tuesday 24 March and the second egg is believed to have been laid at about 8.50am on Friday 27 March.

The third egg arrived at 6.57pm on Sunday 29 March and the fourth egg arrived in the morning of Wednesday 1 April.

Norwich Cathedral’s spire has been home to peregrine falcons for many years and the Hawk and Owl Trust do a great job of keeping people up to date with the latest peregrine news, including running a live stream of the peregrines from their nesting box and running a watchpoint in the Cathedral Close in May and June.

The first pair of peregrine falcons nested on the spire in 2010.

Thirty-three chicks have fledged from the platform on the spire between 2010 and 2025, with several changes in the breeding pair over the years.
