More info: Peregrine falcons do not build nests but make a shallow bowl or scrape which they scratch out with their feet. Urban Peregrines do this in roof shingle, pigeon remains or other available debris.
The earliest record of a peregrine using a building for nesting, goes back to 1864/65 at Salisbury Cathedral, while in London peregrines used St Paul's Cathedral as early as 1921.
