Hi all,

We find them turn up occasionally in almost any habitat in Tassie, - suburban, rural, coastal, mountain - but with no regularity or certainty that I can ascertain.

Fantastic bird though!

What a surprise at lunch time today as we sat down on our side verandah to see an unusual shape in a tall tree about 50 metres away. Bins and scope soon showed it to be a Peregrine falcon , a species which I have never seen in the southern suburban areas of Brisbane (Loganholme and Carbrook) in more than 25 years of bird watching. The peregrine was harrassed by a number of locals and soon flew off over the small golf course behind our house.
