Alison, the article you posted was interesting as it described the cooperation between the University and the Peregrine Recovery Project in building the nest box.
They sure didn't hold back in acquiring a camera with great resolution.
The images are stunning!
Alison:
Thanks, Kinderchick!
A very short article on the Milwaukee EMS falcons:
Baby falcons hatch; caught on webcam
MILWAUKEE (WKOW) -- New baby falcons have hatched in Milwaukee.
A spokesperson for UW-Milwaukee says Peregrine Falcons have been present on the UWM campus for several years frequently seen soaring above or perched on several of the high rise buildings on campus.
In particular, much activity has been observed on the Engineering & Mathematical Sciences Building. In the fall of 2007, Greg Septon of the Peregrine Falcon Recovery Program, toured the EMS site and encouraged University officials and scientists to build and install a nest box at the site.
Plans were drawn up for the box, UWM Physical Plant carpenters and other trades workers constructed and installed the nest box at a site chosen on the roof of the EMS building. Department Biological Sciences faculty and staff provide scientific observation and data reporting.
