dc.description.abstractIn southern Turkey, safety cliffs and islands provide breeding and stopover sites for falcons. But, there is scarce information about their distribution in these regions. In this work, Peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus), Eleonora’s falcon (Falco eleonorae), Merlin (Falco columbarius) and Eurasian Hobby (Falco subbuteo) were identified in the studied area. The study was conducted around Adrasan bay on the coast line of southern Turkey from April to October during 2013-2018. The Eleonora’s falcon and the Peregrine falcon have successfully bred in this region, regularly. A large breeding colony of the Alpine swift (Apus melba) is located close to cliffs in the study area. Both falcon species had many successful attacks on Alpine swifts in the sea. This food abundance may be effective with the safety nesting areas for both Peregrine falcon and Eleonora’s falcon. © 2020, Adiyaman University. All rights reserved.
