A trio of falcons has hatched, and you can watch them grow!

A peregrine falcon couple is once again nesting at the Nebraska Capitol Building, for the first time since 2016. On May 24, three falcons successfully hatched.

They are doing well, said nongame bird program manager Joel Jorgensen. If you'd like to follow their journey, check out the Nebraska Game and Parks nest cam streaming live 24/7 on YouTube.
