Eggciting news over at the Rochester Falconcam!

After a season of uncertainty and no nesting activity last year, the Peregrine Falcons at the Rochester Falconcam are back in business with two eggs laid so far. I have been looking at the main view camera for a few minutes this afternoon and it appears Beauty might already been sitting on the eggs, so the third and final (??) egg might be laid soon. This is the first nesting attempt by the pair Archer and Beauty, and it will surely be an exciting website to keep your eye on as the season progresses! The Rfalconcam website has been updated with easy access to the five nestcams, forum, blogs and shops where you can buy Rfalconcam gear. Birdorable Archer and Beauty swag is available too, with 30% of the sell price on all merchandise being donated to Genesee Valley Audubon, who manage the nestcam.
