Those Peregrine Falcons we've told you about before appear to be flourishing.

The birds have set up a nest on a third-floor ledge of the Mahoning County Courthouse downtown.  Thursday we were able to get a "bird's eye view", so to speak, of one of the falcons feeding the three chicks they've hatched up there.

The adult mates have returned to town the last several years to grow their family.  The little ones could be big enough to fly on their own in a few more weeks.
