Notes:

  1. As much information that can be provided as to location would be beneficial, by means of a road name, track or hut name, river/stream/creek name etc.
  2. The number, gender (if able to distinguish) and age (adult, juvenile, fledgling, or chick) of falcon observed would be of great benefit.
  3. The activity observed (flying, chasing prey, perching, carrying prey etc.) is also very useful, particularly when combined with time of year observed.
