Classified as "of least concern" internationally but still known to be recovering (from the classic population crash due to pesticide magnification effect) at varying rates regionally. This is likely due to localised persecution. Part of the evidence for this is the spectacular comebacks in suitable urban areas compared to more ecologically suitable rural habitats. This is presumed to be due to "control" measures by gamekeepers, egg collecting and other human depradations. > > They have been making a comeback in the new York area+ > > Why Peregrine Falcons Are Moving To New York City - Wingspan Optics > <https://wingspanoptics.com/blogs/field-journal/why-falcons-are-moving-to-new-york-city> > https://wingspanoptics.com/blogs/field.../why-falcons-are-moving-to-new-york-city > <https://wingspanoptics.com/blogs/field-journal/why-falcons-are-moving-to-new-york-city> > > Peregrine Falcons in New York City > http://www.nyc.gov/html/dep/html/news/falcon.shtml > > Dan Matyola > http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/danieljmatyola > > > On Sun, Oct 28, 2018 at 8:12 AM Jostein <[email protected]> wrote: > > > The peregrine has been a critically endangered species here for many > > decades.
