    We report on numerical observations of various properties of ''boundary circles'' for area-preserving maps. We find that the continued fraction expansion of their rotation number generally has a special form. We describe how their rotation number changes as parameters are varied. We observe a statistically self-similar structure in the neighbourhood of boundary circles, which is probably relevant to the long time tails of the decay of correlations in the irregular components.
