An assessment of peregrine falcon habitat suitability in the Brazeau Valley, Jasper National Park / by Geoffrey L. Holroyd, Greg Horne, and Alex Kolesch.: CW69-5/241E-PDF

"Recent releases of Peregrine Falcons into Alberta have increased the potential for Peregrine Falcons to nest in the mountain national parks. Sightings of Peregrine Falcons during the past 20 years in Jasper National Park indicate that a few peregrines occur in the park after the breeding season, but are unlikely to nest there. An assessment of the potential foraging habitat for Peregrine Falrons in the Brazeau valley identified the open valley bottom meadows to be better habitat than alpine meadows but the alpine meadows were more extensive. The valley bottom habitats were larger in the lower Brazeau valley than in the upstream portion"--Abstract.
