Peregrine falcons do not like being with other species. They are mainly seen with others when they are attacking another of the same gender, or defending their territory. The one exception is in breeding season, when peregrine falcons will chose a mate, then breed and raise the young. Breeding season is the only time when peregrine falcons will be together in peace in the wild.
