Hi All,

It's coming up to Falcon breeding time which usually happens between end of August until November. For those who are new to climbing, you can read up more on the care climbers need to take when peregrines are nesting here http://cliffcare.org.au/about/falconwatch/ They often nest in the same areas and seem to have done so for the last few years anyway but there is always the chance they will discover new areas. As soon as you see evidence of the birds nesting could you please drop me a line at cliffcare@vicclimb.org.au and let me know. I can then update the cliffcare site and get the information out there. There will also be some signs that we are trialling this year at Arapiles when a nest site has been found. This will at least alert those that have intentions to climb in the vicinity and are not aware of the nests.

cheers,
Tracey
