I absolutely love the security guy. You can see his love/passion for these falcons in his eyes. It's beautiful to see
“I just work here; this is their home.” Love that guy!
Judy Peregrine is telling Chris what-for!
Ah the old saying 'Birds of a feather flock together'. Those people who know Frank and Judy falcon are the ones who looks after them like a family. Give it 6 stars 🌟
The 2 falcons defending the nest are the parents Frank and Judy. The ones at the vet in Bondi are the juvenile chicks in their first "adult" feathers. I'm a little surprised Chris didn't recognize this. The gray-ish beak is a clear giveaway these are juvenile birds. Around the second to third year their beak gets it's final adult yellow color (usually right around the time they start their own first nest)
The juveniles sometimes end up on the ground during the first branching flights where they get used to being on their wings. It sounds harsh but the parent falcons wil sometimes starve their chicks a bit on purpose to tempt them out of the safety of the nest and get them to fly. They'll then feed them first at those other places and slowly over time by giving them a pray mid-air and then even dropping it higher up so the young have to learn to catch prey mid flight. If the juveniles end up on the ground the parents might get scared away and that's when you find mildly starved and scared young falcons on the ground. Best thing to do is what was done here, either put them high up near the nest straight away or give them a days rest and then return them to (near) the nest
I really enjoyed reading through all you wrote . You are very well informed about falcons . Are you also a vet ??
@@tapsars7911 no, just think peregrine falcons are really cool birds ;)
@@TheAverageDutchman awesome. My mom also loves peregrine falcons and studied them for a while. That's why I also almost immediately saw those where the juveniles (brown~ish feathers), not the parents. I don't know how long ago they came out of their eggs/where born, but I do know they can fly around 6 weeks after being born. Before that it's more practicing of wings and flying, which can look like they can't fly. So there was indeed nothing wrong with them. He just caused a lot of unnecessary stress for the parents by taking the juvies. Chris should have asked a falcon expert for these birds, cause as much as I love Chris, clearly he doesn't know a thing about these birds.
Thank you so much for sharing such valuable information. My heart was broken at what I believe was the loss of these young Falcons. Instead to find that what we were indeed seeing was the beginning ofs the Healthy Start to their young lives. I'm sure when this video was released Chris was informed of his error.
All in all a very happy ending. Chris really is my favourite. I think of him as the MacGyver of veterinarians. When it comes to rigging something up he always comes through.
He is a vet mate, not a falcon expert. At the end of the day all the falcons were safe and able to live their lives. Chris cannot specialize in everything but he does a great job in what he knows. He did diagnose the one with Thrush and treated it. However thank you for your input but please do not criticize the channel for the greater good they do.
That’s great that the manager respects and loves the birds so much that at any sign of trouble, he calls in for help. It’s so cool to see how much he cares. 🥰💗
they are so sweet , respect for the security guy who basically saved them
Thanks Dr Chris for bringing Falcons back to LIFE.
Chris is my favorite of the Bondi Vets. I think of him as the McGyver of Veterinarians. He is always able to rig up some type of usefull device at a moments notice. Not to mention he's very pleasing to the eyes and that Auzie accent.😆😉
Dixie Rae yes! Very much like McGyver always very resourceful! 💙Dr.Chris💙💕
I rescued 3 baby falcons in July. They are so cute with those big eyes. Had to bring them to the SPCA cause I couldn’t get to the nest. Those eyes bring back great memories 💕
I feel sentimental and inspired by the bond people share, (a sort of inner knowing,) that connects them, by way of their love for living creatures and their connection to the planet. Understanding the importance of being a gentle shepherd rather than an opportunistic bully. Realizing that taking care of, and understanding, them, is essentially taking care of ourselves.
What a vet....brilliant.
When he called her georgous she was like well now you mention I am stunning hooman ❤️❤️😂🤣😂🤣
They should build them a nesting box if they are regulars there. We have a nesting box on one of our buildings downtown they put in a camera so you can look 👀 in on them and their chicks if they have any.😊 That’s awesome how they take care of them.
I watch the falcons in Melbourne on their livestream. They are part of the city.
i loved this. thank you doctor for saving these beautiful falcons.
i only recently discovered this show and Australia is my new number one place i wanna visit
Until everything tries to kill you
Anderplays. I couldn't agree more. I just found it 3 or 4 days ago and I haven't been watching anything else. This show has the ability 2 brighten up even The Darkest Day. The only thing that's disappointing is all find a playlist and the majority of the videos have been removed. Curious.
LOKAH SAMASTAH SUKHINO BHAVANTU is a Sanskrit phrase that translates to "may all beings everywhere be happy and free and may the thoughts words and actions of my own life contribute in some way towards that happiness and freedom for all" 💚👽🛸🐶🐄🐷🐔🐳🐬🦜🦚🍀🍄🌎
That guy is fantastic. They live here I just work here.
Well done Dr Chris for helping out these birds and getting back out to there home
Their home. Their. Not there.

Judy poos of the building
People down below thinking wtf is that coming from
Chris: Very sorry bout that
got to worry about the vet's knowledge of the Peregrine Falcons. The two that came in in boxes are juveniles.
It's fantastic, it disarms anyone who admires your work, I love it so much.
I'm such a mush, I would have started bringing them food on the rooftop. A pittance compared to the value those birds bring!
Babies may be lost..But Parents will hopefully be loving again for creation.
This is great to see them fly away.
A great success again for Dr. Chris Brown, to have taken such good care of these 2 owls. What good feeling to see them off, flying again
Owls?
Lots of respect and love to all of them and special thanks to Dr.Chris. I just love the way Dr.Chris treats them and the way he talks to them 🤗❤️
Fantastic fly falcons 👍
I felt like I was going to fall off that building
They are definitely gorgeous birds! In my city amongst the highrises we have several nesting pairs that are protected by the city since they are our natural pigeon control officers! Hehe.
Bless the workers to bring them in - they are so rare and need all the care and help to save the race of rare birds - wonderful ! ♥
Dr. Chris would make sure they get better.
The two you had in care were juveniles and would not be looking after chicks. The bird that nearly swooped you was an adult, so if there were any chicks, at least they were still being looked after.
How gorgeous are they, I have so much admiration from the vet team and the people who care so much about them.
Looking at these beautiful birds it reminds us to be causious on the rising frequency of council poison baits. It’s not only killing the targets but also damaging the natural eco food chain.
This is why falconry is SO important. So many of these beautiful birds do not survive in the wild. I don't know about juvenile Peregrine morality, but 90% of red tail hawks die in their first year by predator, starvation (seen in this video when he said there's not much too her), power lines or collision.
Falconers trap these birds as juveniles, train them to hunt like athletes for a couple of hunting seasons and then release them into the wild again to breed. If you loved this video, I encourage you to look into falconry and be part of the solution to raptor survival.
2:28 I have seen that in my pigeons when I had them when I was a teenager.
I just patiently clean them everyday...
These are juvenile falcons ;)
This is so cool !
Oh great episode! Lovely birds of prey!
My first instinct, have you check for those evil ticks?
great work Dr Chris 👍
Those two peregrines are the babies
Bondi Vet
OMG Beautiful and loud. 👏👏🙏👏❣
Salutations 💌
Dr Chris jest niesamowity ... Kolejny ptak uratowany !
Very good job bro
I only see kestrels where I live. Though, there are peregrine falcons in canada.
I LOVE peregrines!! XXXX
I’m actually planning to draw an Egyptian griffin based on falcon and lion in honor of falcons
Ohh poor falcon's babies :(
That falcon looked like Malcom the falcon that tim found , I think there babies not mum and dad ,
❤️❤️❤️
Can we get some updates on these births, thanks?
I don't even remember subscribing to this channel?...lol UK
Do your homework first (but a beautiful clip) ;)
All the mobile base stations on top of the buildings will slowly but surely kill all birds staying near them.
Jeesh! Just one phone call to a falconer or ornithologist could have solved this minor mystery. (or viewing a few Internet images) Amazing how folks fail to take advantage of today's abundance of info and technology at a finger tip.
Oh dear, Chris. More homework needed. You didn't recognise juveniles? Anything for drama I guess. You've gone waaay down in my estimation. Kudos to the Manager for his care and love of the birds.
🥰🥰
🤩🤩🤩
How I would like to be there working with you, with all the LOVE, affection and RESPECT that you all have for the animals... I still have a long way to go, butHow I would like to be there working with you, with all the LOVE, affection and RESPECT that you all have for the animals...

hello
🙂👍Bondi Vet..
Se pueden poner subtítulos en español?, se agradecería
Maybe someone got sick and tired of having Falcons flying around in people's properties and killing their own pets so maybe the locals have or trying to poison the Falcons that's probably why I am a falcom expert and we have Falcons here in New Zealand knowing as a hawk in New Zealand
So sad. I hope they weren't poisoned intentionally.
I love seeing this rescue but I'm a little disappointed at the poor information the show provided. The "they're rip you to shreds" and "killing machines" and "I need a helmet" … none of that is true. Those birds are practically made of glass. They will swoop to try and scare but they won't make contact because it would kill them. Where I live, there was a sad story of a maintenance guy who got spooked by a falcon swooping at him when he got near her nest and he hit her out of the air with a broom. It killed her instantly. I wish the public didn't fear these beauties.
You my frend
I chat lizards
Third also neat
