Cliffs and crags are the essential feature of the Peregrine's habitat in most parts of the world, usually in open country. Sea cliffs are favored, especially where colonies of seabirds provide a ready food supply.

A bare cliff ledge is the typical nesting place, though sometimes the old nest of another bird such as a raven or buzzard may also be taken. Three or four eggs are usually laid, hatching after four weeks of incubation, mainly by the female. The male's job is to provide food for his mate, and after hatching, for the young or"eyasses". Intruders near the nest are attacked vigorously, with much raucous screaming. The young finally leave the nest after about six weeks, and for a time the whole family may occasionally be seen in the air together, often stooping at each other in play.

Here in this artwork the adult Peregrine can be observed zealously guarding its young, with a look in the eyes which says that it trusts no one.
