Peregrine Falcon, Nebraska State Capitol, 4 April 2008. 

 

            As part of my job, I have the task of keeping tabs on the Falcons that nest on top of the 18th floor of Nebraska’s Capitol Building.  These pictures are from when I visited on 4 April to check how many eggs the female had laid (3 is the answer).   Visit the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission’s falcon cam/webpage, Click here
