Alison:
Years ago, I used to watch this site. Then, the site no longer worked for me, until this year. I have been seeing pigeons at the nest pretty much every day, but for the last two days, no pigeons, so I thought perhaps someone had returned.
Today, I found a peregrine at the nest. I don't know whether this is Boreas or Nemaha. The bird did not want to show legs or bands. He/she has a pretty solid dark hood.
He/she went into the nest for a minute, and did a little scraping (back view only). Then back up on the ledge into the full glare of the light; it was impossible to read the bands, and immediately the bird was gone.

Something I noticed on the site, TPC:
"The birds were both banded by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in Omaha, Neb."
They are not from Omaha, but are both offspring of Alley and 19/K in Lincoln. Possibly you might want to let them know?
RCF:
Boreas & Nemaha have two hatches, first one around 1:30pm today. :)
Here's a video of the second one just hatched

The first feed of both.....hard to see both since one is in the sunlight.

Thanks for sharing this, RCF. Really no further explanations needed. Can I presume they have reclaimed their domain? ???
RCF:
There is a new link for the falcon cam.

It looks like Boreas and Nemaha are back. Nemaha was spotted on Feb 21 2015, then there were no sightings after March 20, 2015. Both were back at the box April 17th. :) Also pigeons laid two eggs in the back of the box if anyone was wondering. ::) :)
