    Three Brown Falcons in 100 metres

    The drive along the access road at work always has a chance of a raptor sighting with Wedge-tails, BSKs, Kestrels, Hobbys and Brown Falcons seen regularly and fairly close. This morning, however, it was a pleasant surprise to see three Brown Falcons perched on the wire fence. I've seen singles...

    Female Peregrine from De Mortel shot

    Phenomenal effort by the vet. Well done indeed. Great to hear the recovery is going well.

    Peregrine activity

    My most recent encounter with a Peregrine was a little over a year ago now. Middle of the day, pretty warm and I was driving a truck out an open cut. I believe - from other observations during my short time at this mine - there was a Peregrine pair nesting in the high wall. Anyway, my...

    WOW! holy s***! its a Peregrine!

    Way to go, CJ. Am quite envious although am still smiling at the Brown Falcon I saw perched on a fence post last week on the way to work. Where in Central NSW are you?

    Osprey catching two fish in one dive — one in each talon

    Very clever. Top pics, Mark.

    Osprey shot in Lincs

    It all comes back to the author of the news piece. They, like us, saw "Osprey shot" and "fish farm" and thought, "Hello, what have we here?" Most people who know what an Osprey is/does would come to the obvious conclusion anyway. However, the writer should have included something along the...

    Upcoming Book: The Eagle Watchers

    Completely agree with you Markus. It arrived last week and is stunning.

    Vasse Estuary (WA)

    The great thing about the area is you've got everything from coastal to big, ancient forest. If you have the time, pop down to Margaret River - http://www.eaglesheritage.com.au/

    New interview about Verreaux's Eagle: First interview about African raptors!!!!

    Great interview, Markus, thank you. Picked up a copy of The Black Eagle because of the comments and artwork by Dr Davies.

    Upcoming Book: The Eagle Watchers

    My copy turned up a couple of months ago although it was probably longer as the past few months have been a blur. Haven't had the time to read it yet but was flicking through last night as it'll be the next book I read. It is a stunning-looking book and I hope it has sold well. Just picked up...

    Cinereous Vulture reintroduction in the Pyrenees: First chick about to leave nest in

    That is good news, Markus. Would be nice if the Indian vultures had good news like this although I've been out of touch for a while so perhaps they have? My first encounter with Vultures was three years ago in South Africa. Seeing them soar overhead is an image that will stay with me for...

    Cairns and local areas

    Thanks for this thread guys. I am off to Cairns in mid-June for a junket, er, course and am going up several days earlier to have a look around as I've never been there. Very keen to see northern raptors but advice of any good photography spots would be appreciated. Asked the same question on...

    Where to find (xxxxx) in the Cairns area, October

    I'm off to Cairns in mid-June for a course and the boss has graciously offered me the chance to go up for the weekend before to do a bit of sight-seeing. I haven't been there before so was pleased to find this thread. I have to google some places to go but any recommendations very welcome...

    Hi anyone in aus

    I might as well be a newbie since I keep returning to Bird Life after absences of several months. I'm in mid-NSW.
