Three adorable falcons have recently hatched on the International Bridge.

The peregrine falcons have returned to the International Bridge, and there is some great news.

Three adorable peregrine falcons have hatched! You can look live at the new additions by checking out the Fal-Cam located on the International Bridge that connects Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. and Sault Ste. Marie, Ont.

Peregrine falcon nest boxes were installed on the International Bridge in 2010 on both the U.S. and Canadian arches.

Peregrines have been active at the International Bridge since 1999.

"The nest boxes are an ongoing commitment by the International Bridge Administration to provide the falcons a habitat, as they like to nest on tall buildings, smokestacks and bridges. The peregrine falcon is listed as an endangered species in Michigan, protected by state law," the Fal-Cam web page says.
