Description:
A tiny chick has hatched from one of four eggs laid by peregrine falcons nesting on the University of Leeds’ Parkinson Tower this week. <br/>This year, the birds of prey have laid four eggs. So far, one chick hatched after a month-long incubation period.<br/>This year’s female falcon is identified as ‘7.H’ by the ring on her leg, through which we know that she hatched in Stoke-on-Trent six years ago, while the male – known as a tiercel - is unfortunately not ringed. <br/>Michael Howroyd, sustainability projects officer and biodiversity programme lead at The University of Leeds, said: “It’s wonderful to see the safe arrival of a peregrine chick here at Leeds today. The University is continually working to shape and support biodiversity on campus and it is great to see that we are a valuable urban location for wildlife to thrive.”
