Amelia is an adult female peregrine falcon - one of the few found nesting in Connecticut.
Her aerie is a nest located outside the 21st floor of the Travelers Insurance building in downtown Hartford. Amelia was born in Greece, New York in 1994. In 1997, she moved to Hartford's Travelers Tower, where she has faithfully returned each year to nest. So far, she has produced eight offspring. Her male partner's name and origin are unknown, since biologists have not been able to read his identifying leg band numbers.
