It's not something you see everyday ...
At least not in a city like Springfield, Massachusetts.
A Peregrine Falcon and her mate have nested atop the Monarch Place Office Tower.
The mother laid four eggs and two of them have hatched.

Peregrines have made a comeback after use of pesticides was reduced.
