Return of the Peregrines

Jun 19, 2012

Birdwatching is easy when you've got a webcam. Technology brings us access to a rare sight this summer — fourteen young peregrine falcons are nesting atop the corporate offices of Black Hills Power in Rapid City. It's part of an three-year program by Janie Fink and Birds of Prey Northwest to reintroduce the birds to the Black Hills and get the falcons off South Dakota's endangered species list. Follow the young predators' progress on the webcam below, at the Rapid City Falcons blog or on Facebook.
