Acadia falcon finds mate in Lewiston

MOUNT DESERT ISLANDER • May 28, 2020

It is not very far from Acadia to Lewiston as the crow – or, in this case, the peregrine falcon – flies. So, it is not too surprising that a peregrine that hatched and fledged here two years ago now has a nest at the Franco-American Heritage Center. But it is one more good sign for Maine’s breeding peregrine population, which is still listed as endangered by the state.
