Peregrines were released in Chicago about five years ago, too.  I know
some pairs nested, but I don't know whether they successfully raised
broods.  I also don't know whether they are still returning to the
city to nest.  I did see more pregrines than usual in the city last
fall, but that could be the result of improvements in the migratory
population or in my own skills as a birder.
