Peregrine Falcons have been nesting on the Riverfront Plaza Building in Richmond since 2003. For thirteen years the same pair, “Ozzie” and “Harriet” occupied the nest. Harriet was last seen in 2016 and Ozzie’s last appearance was in 2017. Last year a new banded male showed up and was joined by an unbanded female this spring. They now have 4 red eggs. For a close up view of their nest watch here. The Department of Game and Inland Fisheries operates the webcam and maintains a highly informative website about Peregrine Falcons.
