Wing and a preyer: Salisbury Cathedral’s star falcon flies nest to Guernsey

Osmund, only male of four chicks that became internet hit in spring 2020, is spotted over 100 miles away

A young male peregrine falcon that hatched at Salisbury Cathedral two years ago and became an internet star during the early days of the first Covid lockdown has spread his wings and reached the island of Guernsey, more than 100 miles away.

Osmund, the only male of four chicks raised on the cathedral tower in spring 2020, was spotted on the coast of the Channel island and identified by his blue ring bearing the initials YK.
