ABOUT FALCONCAM

The Center for Conservation Biology, in partnership with the Virginia Department of Transportation, Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries, Shenandoah National Park, WVEC and Virginia Coast Reserve Long-term Ecological Research, has installed video cameras on three peregrine falcon nest sites throughout Virginia for the 2010 breeding seasons. Click on the links below to view live images from these falconcams (several nest sites have more than one camera monitoring the nest). Cameras are operational 24 hours a day unless otherwise noted.

A BIG thanks to BCAW members for their donations to restore the Cobb camera after the devestataing noreaster storm that destroyed the equipment in 2009.
