Peregrine Falcons In Providence Rhode IslandThere are 95 known nesting pairs of peregrine falcons in New England.The nest in Providence has produced 22 nestlings since the female, called Shadow, laid her first clutch of eggs in 2000.READ MORE http://www.projo.com/news/cont... name "peregrine" means wanderer, and the Peregrine Falcon has one of the longest migrations of any North American bird. Tundra-nesting falcons winter in South America, and may move 25,000 km (15,500 mi) in a year. Maps of the migration of individual falcons determined by satellite telemetry can be seen at Environment Canada. People have trained falcons for hunting for over a thousand years, and the Peregrine Falcon was always one of the most prized birds. Efforts to breed the Peregrine in captivity and reestablish populations depleted during the DDT years were greatly assisted by the existence of methods of handling captive falcons developed by falconers. The Peregrine Falcon is a very fast flier, averaging 40-55 km/h (25-34 mph) in traveling flight, and reaching speeds up to 112 km/h (69 mph) in direct pursuit of prey. During its spectacular hunting stoop from heights of over 1 km (0.62 mi), the peregrine may reach speeds of 320 km/h (200 mph) as it drops toward its prey.The Peregrine Falcon is one of the most widespread birds in the world. It is found on all continents except Antarctica, and on many oceanic islands.

banning started I think in the 60's when raptor populations around the world were declining. Banning allowed scientist to track birds and helped solve the problem, which was ddt used in southern farming all the way down to south america, which was found in the food of the birds that migrated. Banning helped solve this issue, and pass lawns that made the harmful chemicals illegal in those areas, no for banning some species would be extinct

Bird banding = human harassment. Evolution has refined birds to a perfect form. What does attaching bands to their legs do to their mating/hunting/survival sucess? Not much.
