Watch our cameras to see how many Peregrine falcon eggs will be laid (usually in mid-April) and see the chicks hatch in late May

Minnesota Power has partnered with the Raptor Research Project of Decorah, Iowa since 1991 to band peregrine falcon chicks high atop our 350-foot stack at Boswell Energy Center in Cohasset, Minn. as well as at our Hibbard Energy Center in Duluth, Minn.

The banded falcons are identified and entered into a University of Minnesota research database which makes it possible to track the birds' activities over their lifetimes, furthering our knowledge of this once-endangered species. The electric industry continues to play a key role in Peregrine falcon recovery efforts in Minnesota and across the upper Midwest.
