Moxie the Falcon Found Safe | Fort Wayne News

Moxie the peregrine falcon, a beloved local icon who’s raised over thirty chicks with her mate Jamie in fourteen years, went missing from her Indiana Michigan Power nest in early July — a major concern for rehabbers, especially after this year’s nesting season failed with both eggs failing. Suspects ranged from rival falcons to the natural decline of breeding in older birds. But relief came fast: Moxie was spotted downtown near the PNC Center, likely just taking a well-earned break with Jamie. While it’s unclear if they’ll return to their usual nest this year, the rehab center is thrilled to see her safe — and invites everyone to follow their inspiring work online.
