I am fairly sure I am seeing either a couple of Australian Hobby's (or Peregrine Falcons?) around the AMP on a moderately regular basis from my office window. Unfortunately they are only fleeting glimpses when I happen to glace up while I am working, which is why I am not dead certain. Is this consist with other reports/sightings? I know there was a post about Peregrine Falcons in the city fairly recently, but I can't recall which part of the city. However, I am thinking Hobby because of the impression of a white collar behind the black hood in-flight. I haven't seen them perched. Hopefully I'll get a more definite sighting soon.
