2013 Peregrine Falcon Cam Click here


A new high-tech video camera installed at the top of the Cathedral of Learning on the University of Pittsburgh campus is providing nature lovers and researchers an intimate look at the life of peregrine falcons and their young.

The live streaming EarthCam camera watches over the project of the National Aviary's Department of Conservation and Field Research in collaboration with the University of Pittsburgh and the Pennsylvania Game Department. The webcam a gives real-time views of the peregrine nest that is the home of Erie and Dorothy, one of two closely followed peregrine pairs in the Pittsburgh area. Those viewing the nest can follow the progress of the pair's eggs, which if all goes well, are expected to hatch in late April.

This cam has joined the Wild Earth TV family and I have added the new link in the first post....we have an adult visiting the box!
