Title: Another male with 2 nests: Midwest Peregrines Post by: Donna on 30-May-15, 08:19:49 AM Once again, a male named "Younger" has successfully produced live chicks at two sites, with 2 different females, about a city block apart in distance in downtown Minneapolis, MN. There is about 5-7 day age difference between the two broods: 4 chicks at one site and 3 at the other. To our knowledge, Younger is the only documented, successful bigamous paired male in the region. :whistle:
