The Saker Falcon (Falco cherrug) is a bird of prey living in plains and forest-steppes in the West and semi-desert montane plateaus and cliffs in the East. The majority of its Central and Eastern European population is migratory and spends winters in the Mediterranean, the Near East and East Africa. With its global population estimated at 6,100-14,900 breeding pairs, the species is considered endangered according to the IUCN Red List.
In Bulgaria, the Saker Falcon, considered extinct as a breeding species since the early 2000s, was recovered in 2018 with the discovery of the first active nest from its new history in Bulgaria. The nest is built by two birds that were reintroduced back in 2015 as part of the first ever Saker Falcon reintroduction program. The results of the 5-year program are described in detail in the open-acce

Missile in Mysuru

Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus) Powerful, sharp winged raptor that’s found all across the globe. They are the fastest birds in the world diving at around 320-390 kmph to catch their prey. Their population is increasing in cities due to the accessibility to tall buildings where they can nest. It is one of the worlds most widespread raptor. Their main prey species include pigeons and ducks, but sometimes hunts smaller mammals, reptiles and insects. Around 50 years back these birds were on the verge of becoming endangered species due to DDT, a pesticide used in agriculture, but now their population trend is stable and is classified as least concern by the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) red list. They live in a wide range of habitats. Spotted in the outskirts of Mysuru near Bandipalya.
