Title: Manitowoc, Wisconsin Peregrines 2016
Post by: AlisonL on 23-Mar-16, 12:00:08 AM
This nest is located on top of the Briess grain elevator in Manitowoc, Wisconsin. The webcam was added this year.

The resident male at this site is Patriot, born in 2007 at Green Bay, Wisconsin, banded black/green E/36. His mate is Valcor, born at the Wrigleyville nest in Chicago in 2013. She is banded black/green N/22.

I thought the name of the town was familiar. That's where Reuben, Linn's first mate, was hatched.

Busch Agricultural Center

I wonder if it's the same scrape?

You are right, Dumpsterkitty. Briess bought the Busch Agricultural Center in 2014. The nest at the site has been active since 1998, according to Greg Septon.

Thanks! Wish we knew what happened to Reuben last year.

I stil hope Reuben will turn up at another nest.
