Henry the eagle has landed

HENRY, the young bald eagle who went missing a week ago from Warwick Castle, has come home. The teen bald eagle was taken part in a display at the castle when he took off for a summer holiday jaunt on Saturday.

But today, Friday he landed back at the castle unharmed. A castle spokesman said: "We're delighted that our young eagle, Henry, returned to the castle this morning during our 11.30am birds of prey display. He's safe and sound, and has been reunited with his mum, Sydney and his expert handlers. It's not unusual for young birds of prey to stretch their wings and explore, but we're very happy to have Henry home. Our thanks go to all those who helped look for him and reported sightings to us, and we can't wait to see him in action again in this weekend's twice daily shows."
