Talks:
'The Story of the Maltese Falcon' – Joe Sultana, Maltese ornithologist
'Secret Lives of Urban Peregrines' – Ed Drewitt, author of new book 'Urban Peregrines'
Strong, sleek and powerful, the Peregrine Falcon is a master of the skies and often celebrated as the fastest bird in the world.
This majestic bird of prey was once resident here in Malta, raising their chicks every year on our coastal cliffs. Unfortunately, they suffered from illegal persecution and have not nested regularly for over 30 years.
BirdLife Malta are now exploring the possibility of returning the iconic Maltese Falcon to our islands once more. Join us at this event to discover more about these magnificent birds, their cultural and historical significance, and what the opportunity of reintroducing them could mean for Malta.
