Info: Live peregrine falcon webcam in Australia. The peregrine falcons shown are nesting on a water tower at Charles Sturt University in Orange, New South Wales.
Peregrines have been nesting there since 2007.
The chicks hatched on the 4th and 5th of October, 2024.
More info: The nest is inside a wooden box located on top of a water tower and the peregrine falcons have been observed nesting there since 2007. Eggs are usually laid in late August with chicks hatching in October and fledging in November. Generally the chicks hang around often until late March.
FalconCam Project, located at the CSU Orange campus in New South Wales, was established in 2008 to study, monitor and record the breeding and natural behaviour of a resident peregrine falcon family ('Falco peregrinus macropus') to provide a glimpse in to the life of a bird of prey species which until recently was listed worldwide as “at risk”, and to provide research, pictures, videos and live streamed vision for the worldwide conservation effort.
