On Wednesday morning, the feathered tenants at the Campanile at UC Berkeley became the parents of four. In anticipation, the Cal Falcons group called today "Hatch Day" and set up a live viewing on the big screen at the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive.RELATED:Falcon experts were on hand to answer people's questions about Annie and her chicks.
And for the first time ever, Hatch Day also featured a live raptor, who was on site until 2 p.m. that afternoon. "This is ideal. The big screen gets people here, and we're here to educate. Annie the falcon is here to entertain. We are here to educate," said Mary Malec with Cal Falcons.There are no names yet for the new chicks, so we are waiting to see if there will be some kind of naming contest.
