ST. LOUIS, Mo. — Like swallows returning to Capistrano, a pair of peregrine falcons has again returned to a nesting box at Ameren Missouri's Sioux Energy Center in the St. Louis area. Through a cooperative effort, Ameren Missouri, the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC), and the World Bird Sanctuary (WBS) are providing the public with a third year of their online “FalconCam” for a bird’s-eye view of the peregrine falcons raising their chicks.
Falcon nesting activities can be viewed via the FalconCam from 7 a.m. until 8 p.m. (CDT) seven days a week on MDC’s website at mdc.mo.gov/node/16934, on Ameren’s website atAmerenMissouri.com/FalconWatch and on the WBS website at worldbirdsanctuary.org. WBS experts will offer periodic website commentary on what’s happening in the nest. The FalconCam will be available until nesting activity is complete and the young have left the nest.
