Users of the bike and walking path on the Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge have chosen the names for the three peregrine falcons born on the bridge earlier this spring.
Their choices were Luke Flywalker, Talon Zee and Jimmy Falcon.
This year s chicks included two females and one male, but the state did not indicate which name goes to the male.
The names pay tribute to, respectively, the Star Wars movie franchise; the Tappan Zee Bridge, which preceded the current bridge in that location; and Jimmy Fallon, who tapes his Tonight Show in Rockefeller Center.
Nearly 1,000 visitors to the bridge voted during the past two weekends. They picked their three favorite names from among 50 submitted by local elementary and middle school students.
