Falcon Chicks Arrive

May 16, 2024

Three newly hatched falcon chicks in MGE nesting box.

Three falcon chicks recently hatched in the nesting box at Blount Generating Station. The first made its debut on the morning of May 9.

The second chick arrived a few hours later, and the third hatched late that night. A fourth egg remains unhatched and is likely infertile. While unfortunate, the hatch rate over the past 35 years for Wisconsin's peregrine falcons is about 75%, so this is a normal result.

Watch the new chicks grow and see Trudy and Melvin tirelessly care for the little ones on our livestream falcon cam.
