Birding for Beginners

The formerly endangered peregrine falcon produced a bumper crop of at least 23 juveniles this year in the Pittsburgh region.

With help from the National Aviary, we’ll look at how Phipps flamingos compare to the real-life creatures they represent!

Falcons born at the Cathedral of Learning have also been found nesting in Ohio, New York, and Ontario.

The National Aviary revealed the genders of its newest African penguins on social media Tuesday. The penguins hatched in early February, and they are the offspring of penguin parents Bette and Sidney.

Another aviary resident, Red the Scarlet Macaw, helped with the reveal, opening bird safe “candies.”
