Hello Salt Lake City! We have Eggs.

Bob Walters called me this evening to let me know that a pair of peregrine falcons is nesting in the nest box that was installed a few years ago on the One Utah Center building which is located just a few blocks south of the former nesting site.

You can read more news at the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources website https://wildlife.utah.gov/peregrine-cam.html . There is even a photograph!

Hopefully they will get the live camera online soon.

The first egg was apparently seen last week and the approximate hatch dates are June 6th to 8th. If all goes well, fledge would be middle July, which is quite late compared to prior nest years.
