An online broadcast has begun in Melbourne from a peregrine falcon nest situated on the 34th floor of one of the city's high-rise buildings. The project's organizers are inviting viewers from around the world to watch as the chicks hatch and as their parents raise them in close proximity to the bustling city life of the Australian metropolis. Peregrine falcons are birds of prey known as some of the fastest creatures on the planet: in a diving flight, they can reach speeds of more than 300 kilometers per hour. In recent decades, these birds have increasingly chosen to nest not on cliffs and crags but on high-rise buildings in cities, which in structure resemble the natural habitats of birds of prey. Skyscrapers give falcons a convenient vantage point for hunting pigeons and other urban birds, as well as relative protection from ground-based predators. The broadcast from the nest on the 34th floor will allow ornithologists and the general public to follow all stages of raising the offspring in real time — from the appearance of the eggs to the young birds' first flights. Such projects are becoming increasingly popular: webcams installed near the nests of species that are rare or of particular interest for observation help draw attention to the challenges of preserving urban wildlife and provide scientists with valuable material for studying bird behavior under conditions of urbanization. The organizers note that this kind of coexistence between humans and wild animals in the very heart of a metropolis demonstrates how nature adapts to the urban environment, and they express hope that the broadcast will help residents of Melbourne and people around the world take a fresh look at the city's inhabitants, hidden from view at dizzying heights.
