Falco peregrinus

Common Names:
Habitat:
Description:
Comments: a medium-sized falcon about the size of a large crow: 380-530 millimetres (15-21 in) long. The English and scientific species names mean "wandering falcon", and refer to the fact that some populations are migratory. It has a wingspan of about 1 meter (40 in). Males weigh 570-710 grams; the noticeably larger females weigh 910-1190 grams.

The Peregrine Falcon is the fastest creature on the planet in its hunting dive, the stoop, in which it soars to a great height, then dives steeply at speeds in excess of 200mph (320 km/h) into either wing of its prey, so as not to harm itself on impact. The top speed recorded is 242.3mph (390 km/h).
