PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) — The Peregrine falcons who call the top of the so-called Superman building in Providence home are now proud parents.

The Audubon Society of Rhode Island announced Thursday that the first of four eggs had hatched. The second and third eggs hatched on Friday.

Those intrigued by the birds, who have been dubbed the “Providence Peregrines,” can watch them up close through a continuous livestream run by the Audubon Society.

The young Peregrines, which are described as white and fluffy, are called eyases and will grow for four to six weeks before learning to fly from their nest.

In the meantime, the Audubon Society explained that the parents will support them by supplying their food for roughly six weeks.

The young Peregrine Falcons will eventually venture out on their own and disperse to find new homes, likely 300 to 500 miles away from the city, according to the Audubon Society.

This season marks the 25th anniversary of the Audubon Society’s nesting box and livestream.
