Leicester peregrine falcon lays first eggs of 2024!

A peregrine falcon living in the spire of Leicester Cathedral has laid her first two eggs of 2024.

A webcam monitoring a breeding pair of the birds of prey has captured footage of the eggs in their nest.

Volunteers from the Leicester Peregrines group said they were delighted after the eggs were laid on Sunday and Wednesday.

They are hoping for more eggs from the peregrines in the remaining weeks of the breeding season.

David Gray is from Leicester peregrines and joined Ady Dayman to tell us more about this.
