Sussex Heights Falcon Webcam

Yesterday evening I received an email from the Sussex Heights Webcam Projectmember: The webcams have been switched on for 2009!
And that is wonderful news!
Last year we all have enjoyed this peregrine falcon couple with their 4 eyases. You can all read about it on this Blog:

The Gulf Tower was the first known building nest site in Pennsylvania. Many other PA nest sites are on bridges. Buildings are generally more successful locations for peregrines nesting in cities.
The original pair in Pittsburgh wore coded leg bands identifying them as part of the recovery program. The original female was released in the Shenandoah Mountains near the Virginia-West Virginia border in June 1989. The male was released in northeastern Tennessee in June 1989.
The Gulf Tower nest has fledged a total of 59 young peregrine falcons since the first nesting in 1991.

Lansing, Michigan is one of many successful Peregrine Falcon nests in our state. Lansing Board of Water and Light (BWL) is very fortunate and honored to have an endangered species of Michigan take habitat at our Eckert electric generating plant. Our new falcon cameras were installed on February 28, 2008.
