Peregrine Falc Peregrine Falcon: 150 Days From Egg to Survivor | Part 1on 150 Days From Egg to Survivor Part 1

#birds #nature #documentary
From high cliff ledges and skyscraper nests, Peregrine Falcons live at the edge—where speed, weather, and hunger decide everything.

This episode captures real Peregrine Falcon behavior during the most critical stages of life: courtship hunting, egg laying, nonstop incubation, and the first brutal days of chick survival in late winter and early spring.
Four eggs are laid. Four chicks hatch. Only three survive.

You will witness:
• High-speed aerial hunting and midair prey transfers (“sky transfer”)
• Egg laying on a shallow gravel nest during cold wind, sleet, and light snow
• Tight incubation shifts as the adults rotate and protect all four eggs
• Predator pressure near the nest (crows, hawks, and larger raptors)
• Chicks hatching on different days—size gaps forming immediately
• Feeding behavior: tearing prey into tiny pieces and beak-to-beak feeding
• Food shortage moments and the harsh outcome of sibling rivalry
• Natural selection in real time—without rescue, without intervention

There is no background music, no staged scenes, and no forced narration.
Only real wildlife behavior, natural sound, and the true cost of survival in nature.

This video is part of a long-form wildlife series documenting raptor nesting behavior, bird life cycles, and predator survival strategies in the wild.
