Milton-Madison Bridge

Despite the noise and activity surrounding construction of the new Milton-Madison Bridge, the pair of peregrine falcons nesting on one of the bridge piers has had another successful nesting season.

Officials from the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources monitoring nest activity say three healthy falcon chicks hatched in the nest in April. The nesting box is located near the Indiana side of the bridge on a pier that is not being reused as part of the project.
