OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — The votes are in!

OPPD announced the names of the falcon sisters at its North Omaha station on Monday.

Thunder and Lighting were the names chosen in a contest that garnered 1,475 votes.

The falcons were born at the Nebraska State Capitol in Lincoln and are expected to take flight soon. The pair are currently shedding their “fluff” to expose their adult feathers.
