Tired of the eagle cam? State of Iowa is offering "falconcam"

Yes, there's Decorah's famous eaglecam, but there's also an Iowa peregrine falcon cam the Iowa DNR is trying to publicize.

Since 1993 there has been a falcon nest on top of a downtown Des Moines building.  There have been 46 young produced at this site.

The live web cam can be seen at at http://www.iowadnr.gov/wildlife/diversity/falconcam.html

The State of Iowa is asking for contributions to the Wildlife Diversity Program at 1436 255th Street, Boone, IA 50036 or contact Pat.Schlarbaum@dnr.iowa.gov
