The peregrine falcon chicks have fledged! 

Yes, Annie and Alden’s closely watched brood atop UC Berkeley’s Campanile clock tower have taken the leap -- or dive rather -- and flown the nest on June 18, about six weeks after hatching.

In this episode of “Bay Current”, Mallory Somera catches up with Mary Malec, raptor nest monitor from Cal Falcons, East Bay Parks and the Golden Gate Raptor Observatory to see how the now-hatched and fledged chicks, Lindsay and Grinnell, Jr., are faring, and what’s next as they begin to take flight.
