Update 4-10-2008
Our male and female peregrine falcons have returned to the downtown Topeka area. The female returned about seven weeks ago, the male about two weeks ago.
Repeated attempts have failed to safely capture the male to turn him over to Minnesota to be in captivity and used for eduation there, giving mom time to search for a better mate (the male has a history of breaking unhatched eggs).
Breeding activity has taken place. Because of the males past behavior, we are seeking approval from U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services to remove the eggs (once they're laid), replacing them with dummy eggs to ensure safe incubation at another site. Once any viable eggs are hatched we will return the chicks to the nest box.
