This is the fourth year this pair of falcons has nested at the nest on the 15th floor of the Rachel Carson building. The female has laid eggs here since 2000 with two different males, the second arrived in 2005 after the original male was discovered injured the previous year. Last year this couple raised 4 fledglings: 2 females and 2 males. Unfortunately 2 of them where found death within 3 months after fledging. One flew against a glass panel and the other agiants electric wiring.Let's hope this year everything will turn out fine!
