Descriptions:

Ansel Ansel Adams - photographer and environmentalist.

Apollo was one of the most important Gods, recognized as a god of music, truth and prophecy, healing, the sun and light, plague, poetry, and more.

Armstrong was a famous astronaut.
 
Frederick is in honor of Frederick Douglass.
 
Gawain means "white hawk." Gawain is King Arthur's nephew and a Knight of the Round Table.

Hermes has wings on his sandals in the story Percy Jackson, and so do the peregrine falcons.

Horus is the falcon-headed god of Egyptian mythology and patron deity of the sky.

Lindbergh is for pilot, Charles Lindbergh, who flew great distances with courage and stamina.

Montu is an Egyptian War God of sun & valor that was depicted as a falcon headed man with the falcon representing the sky.

Nimbus is like a storm cloud.

Taurus because the babies were born under the astrological sun sign of Taurus, meaning they will be patient, reliable, and at times stubborn falcons. The Sun transits the constellation of Taurus from May 14 to June 19. It means 'The Bull' in Latin.

Valor is a sign of bravery and honor. Peregrine's represent valor in that they are bravely overcoming endangerment and we should honor their species.

Three polls have been posted (male name, female name, gender-neutral name). The voting period ends Monday night at 11:59 PM EDT.

One of this year's eyases will be given either an appropriate gender-specific name or a gender-neutral name, whichever receives the most votes. In case of a tie, the number of times each of the 2 names was submitted will be used as a tie breaker. If that is a tie too, a coin will be flipped.
