Many of our community members have called concerned about our local turkey mom and her little poults. 🦃💛

We’ve checked on this Turkey family and we've checked with our DNR partners and local wildlife folks and everyone agrees that turkey mom should be okay. She’s still moving around, caring for her babies, and doing what turkey moms do best.

For now, the best thing we can do is give the family some space. Thanks to everyone who has called and checked in!

Peregrine falcon project update:

The UW Oshkosh peregrine falcons produced three eggs this year, and have successfully reared one male chick.
We’d like to introduce you to Chance the Falcon, named after Lieutenant Chance Duenkel who assisted with the banding team this year.

This year’s female is new to UWO - she has replaced Julia who was our resident female for many years, along with Ga***rd, our resident male.

Looking for more info on the falcon program, where you can watch the falcon cam or make a donation to the program?
