Pergrine Falcons Get New Home Atop Verrazano Bridge
By: NY1 News

Two peregrine falcon chicks now have a great view of New York Harbor.

The Department Of Environmental Protection, along with Metropolitan Transportation Authority Bridges And Tunnels placed the chicks in a nest atop the Brooklyn tower of the Verrazano Bridge.

This after wildlife officials determined the chicks' original home was not a safe environment.

The MTA says the [peregrine] falcons already in the nest took to the new arrivals and quickly adopted them.

Environmental officials say there are at least 15 pairs of Peregrine Falcons in the city.
