• Peregrine falcons are found on all continents
  throughout the world with the exception of
  Antarctica. Many people use telemetry units to
  track movements of the Peregrine falcons.

• The Peregrine falcon spends the winter months
  in the warmer climate of Central and South
  America, then in early Spring, returns to their
  nesting territory in the U.S.

• An example of the Peregrine journey starts at
  Lake Athabase and travels down the U.S. all the
  way through Cuba, Haiti, and ends up near
  Nicaragua. Also from the data I have collected I
  have concluded that the migration time lapse is
  from Sept. 17 to Nov.8.

Personal Notes

• Researching migration patterns and following
  nesting and hatching of the Peregrines in
  Cleveland, I have developed a strong interest in
  birds of prey.
