A joyful, educational flight from the halls of Chicago's Field Museum to the nests of mighty peregrine falcons

Rosie the Tarantula, famous for her adventure in the corridors and collections of Chicago's celebrated Field Museum of Natural History, is back. This time, Rosie is focused not on spiders, but on falcons! The Falcon Experience brings us with Rosie as she follows Mary Hennen, the museum's real-life peregrine program director, giving children and parents alike a front-row seat to the lives of these majestic birds and the scientist who cares for them. Rosie learns how falcons fly, hunt, eat, mate, construct nests and raise chicks (via the peregrine webcam!) in unexpected and challenging places in the city. Mary's teachings also show how humans can be the key to helping our natural environment.
