LIVE AT HOME: Red Pandas, wolves and falcons

Have you ever seen a Red Panda in the Hudson Valley? What about wolves? No, not coyotes, wolves. Real wolves. Red Wolves. Falcons? Yes, okay, but what about Peregrine Falcons up close nesting on the Mid-Hudson Bridge? 

It's Earth Week – Wednesday's the 50th anniversary of Earth Day! – and it's the perfect time to get out in nature and explore, and you don't have to leave home to do it (because these places are currently closed to the public anyway).

Turn off that "Tiger King," and check out these webcams to bring the great, unique Hudson Valley outdoors to you, indoors:

• LIVE: Peregrine Falcons nesting on the Mid-Hudson Bridge 
  The first nesting box on the Mid-Hudson bridge was put up in the late 1980s by "Project Soar" through a program sponsored by the Museum of the Hudson Highlands. However, it was not until 1996 that peregrine falcons nested on the Mid-Hudson Bridge. Since then, falcons have nested there every year (except 2001).
