On 7.12.24 my father, brother and I visited this McKinley Park industrial building area to check on the Peregrine Falcon family at 9:20 AM. We first saw the Peregrine Falcon parent (Bree) on the northeast corner of the tower. The Peregrine Falcon fledgling was on the west side of the tower! We have not been able to confirm her whereabouts with pictures since 6.15.24.
The first male fledgling was reported to have been taken to Willowbrook (see 6.11.24 post) due to a fractured bone. He is still recovering there. They said he’s doing well. They were hoping to move it outside and then work with Chicago Bird Collision Monitors to try to release it.
See more about these Peregrine Falcons on my McKinley Peregrines page.
