This is a report that John Castrale, Indiana's DNR non game bird biologist, submitted to the Indiana Audubon Society in February 2014. The Peregrine section begins on page 2 and Fort Wayne is on page 11.

Below is the Fort Wayne portion of the report.

"19. One Summit Center, Fort Wayne, Allen County – Following the release of peregrine falcon chicks during 1992 in Fort Wayne, a nest box was placed on the roof of this city’s largest building. A pair first nested in 1996 and successfully raised young each year from 1996-2007. From 2008-2011, the same pair returned, but no eggs were ever laid, possibly due to the advanced age of the female. In 2012, a juvenile female displaced the resident female early in the breeding season and a new male was also present. Nesting did not occur that year, but the same pair nested successfully in 2013. The previous female, Freedom, was found dead in mid-May 2013 not far from the nest site. A camera has been in place at this nest site since 1999. Two different females and three males have nested here."

The link is for the entire report:
