Indiana FalconCam Up and Running! (1 Viewer)

In case you're interested . . .

The nest cam atop the city's tallest building, on the 26th floor, is up and running for the 2004 season.

Falcons have been nesting at this location since 1992, the year they were re-introduced in Indiana. And the female, Freedom, has proven to be one of the most prolific breeders in the midwest, with lots of her babies spreading out across the eastern and central US.

This is a nice cam to watch, as the picture refreshes every 30 seconds.

There's not much activity YET, but breeding season is nearly upon us. There were four babies last year (3 survived to adulthood, as far as I know; a little female made a miscalculation in early flight training and crashed into the building, darn it!).

Hope you enjoy watching Roosevelt and Freedom -- they are magnificent birds, and Fort Wayne, Indiana, is very proud of the fact that they call this town their home!
