Name San Jose's Three Baby Falcons!

San Jose City Hall's resident peregrine falcons, Clara and Fernando El Cohete, have three healthy baby boy falcons in their nest!  Now the young tiercles (male peregrines) need names. Children ages 5 to 18 who live or attend school in San Jose can submit names (together with essays, poems, artwork, videos, or songs) by midnight Friday, April 26 to help name the falcons.


Ten finalists will be selected, then falcon fans will have an opportunity vote for their favorite names online May 3rd.  The final three new names will be announced May 10th.  

See the flyer, website information, and entry forms here.  Good luck!
