Introducing Our New Rochester Falcons Nova & Neander!
Since our new pair arrived, we’ve been calling them UF for Unbanded Falcon (female) and UT for Unbanded Tiercel (male). Well, it’s about time they received their new names.
After a week of intense voting, our Rochester Falcon Fans have chosen their favorite names from a list of names submitted by the Rochester Falcon Watchers. We received 533 votes! Thank you!
UF will now be known as Nova and UT will now be called Neander. These names were chosen by Rochester Falcon Watcher Linda King. Congratulations Linda!
Please join us in welcoming Nova and Neander!

Wonderfully meaningful names. Thank-you, Linda. Now if only all those 500 + people could like our YouTube channel;-)
I will probably shorten them to Nova and Nean, or No, Ne:-D
