Subject: [Tweeters] A Continent-wide Peregrine question
Date: Jan 9 14:13:34 2017
From: Bud Anderson - falconresearch at gmail.com


The recovery of Peregrine Falcons in North America is one of the great
environmental success stories of the last 50 years.

To gauge the recovery in 2017, we would like to know how many peregrines
are nesting in urban environments on man-made structures like buildings,
bridges, towers, nuclear plants, stuff like that. Doesn't necessarily have
to be in a city, just on a man-made structure.

So far, we have nesting records for every US state (and Washington DC)
except the following eight;

Arkansas
Louisiana
Mississippi
Montana (!)
South Carolina
South Dakota
West Virginia
Wyoming

We also have them breeding in all provinces except

Northwest Territory
Yukon Territory
Nunavut
Nova Scotia
PEI
and remarkably, British Columbia.

If there are people out there that know of any peregrines breeding on
man-made structures in any of these states or provinces/territories, please
let us know.

If you can pass this along to other lists, we would appreciate it.

Let's see how Tweeters does as a research tool.

Thanks in advance,
