Replacement Peregrine Falcon nesting platforms

[old coot]

Last week Sunday(21), I went for a walk along the dyke at the east end of North Parallel Rd. I heard, but did not pay attention to, a helicopter flying behind me, seemingly near the quarry. I found out later from Alfred that the owner of the quarry arranged for three nest platforms to be put up by helicopter at great cost.
Alfred told me where one was, near the dyke, but about a kilometer west of the quarry. It took a while, but I found it.

Alfred told me another was at McDonald Park. It took Bufflehead and me a while to find it, but here it is.

Sorry about the poor quality, but I shot through trees. Here is a cropped view:

Now we have to find the third platform. The hunt is on!
Thanks Alfred for the info.
I wonder if the Peregrine will use them?
Oh well, life goes on. Klaus

It will be interesting to see if they get used. I have my doubts. Thanks for the news Klaus.
