Many people are viewing a live stream of a falcon located on a rooftop in Melbourne.

Once again, the peregrine falcons have returned to their nesting spot atop a skyscraper on Melbourne's iconic Collins Street. The start of a new breeding season for these magnificent birds of prey has been officially declared, and a live-stream of the nest has already captured the very first egg of the season.

This particular spot is the only known nesting site for peregrine falcons in Melbourne's CBD, and it has become a beloved obsession for thousands of people. The rare nesting birds have been monitored by cameras on the building, which became a social media sensation during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, a Facebook group called "367 Collins Falcon Watchers" was formed, with a whopping 48,000 members, all eagerly anticipating the hatching of the egg.

Typically, the breeding season for these falcons begins in August, and this year, there is great hope that the eggs will successfully hatch, unlike in 2023. The live-stream of the nest is available 24 hours a day, attracting hundreds, and sometimes even thousands, of peregrine enthusiasts to tune in at any given time.

Since 1991, these falcons have been known to make their home atop the building at 367 Collins Street. The nesting box that provides them with a safe place to lay their eggs was thoughtfully installed on the roof of the 36th floor by Dr Victor Hurley.
