Walkthrough

  1. Speak to Charlie the zookeeper in Ardougne zoo. He will explain how a northern ferret managed to escape and how he sent one of his associates, a huntsman named Nickolaus, to capture another northern ferret for the zoo. Unfortunately, he has not been heard from since. Charlie will ask you to go to Eagles' Peak.

  2. Head over to Eagles' Peak. It is located to the west of the Tree Gnome Stronghold, northwest of your present location. To the north of Eagle's peak, you will find a campsite. Inspect the books there to find a Bird book. Read it to obtain a Metal feather.

  3. Now go to the top of Eagles' Peak (if you have 25 Agility, you can use the Agility shortcut to save some time). Inspect the rocky outcrop at the top and then use the Metal feather on it to open up a secret passageway.

    Ask him about bird costumes and he will offer to make the costume for you, if you provide him with 10 Eagle feathers, 1 Yellow dye, 1 Swamp tar, and 50 gold coins. Talk to him again and give him the supplies. He will give you 2 Eagle capes and 2 Fake beaks.
