No Worries, The Eyasses Are Fine

Several of you have written in to us about the whereabouts and the well-being of the two eyass peregrines.

No worries.

They are now ambulatory and have moved to the north end of the ledge and out of sight of the camera. They often do this at this stage of their development.

Like all vertebrate youngsters, they like to explore their surroundings and get a new perspective on their world.

Ruth Taylor watched them on the ledge last night and they were fine. They will both be ambling back into view at any time.

Next thing to worry about will be when you seen them perching precariously close to the edge of their ledge, tails overhanging 56 stories of pure void.

Then you will get to encounter some more of these slightly famous surges of "eyass anxiety".
