THE FAMOUS Peregrine Falcons nest on the Joseph Smith Memorial Building has seen no activity since 2015. We will update if a new pair nests in the box.

Another Nest Box Downtown
I found this little tidbit on KSL News. Apparently there is a falcon box installed on The Church of the Madeline's bell tower. You will see the box about 3/4 of the way into this video.

Towards the end of the season we saw a juvenile fly off east of Temple Square and wondered where they might be heading. This maybe be a feeding spot, as the church has pigeons as well. I highly doubt the breeding pair would choose that box over the one they've already used in years past but this gives us a place to look when we know they head east.

Wow- thats interesting. I guess our Falcons
couldn't decide whether they wanted to be
Mormons or Catholics. Thanks Liz. These little
tidbits are very much appreciated. They will surely keep us going till our Falcons come back
in Feb or March, hopefully.
whatever happened with the nesting box on IMC hospital? Did Bob ever get in contact with the person that put it there? It would be fun to have another nest cam!!
I have followed the babies in this blog and watched them grow. Fascinating! I am really looking forward to next Spring!
