About Falcon
How fast can falcons fly?
Peregrine falcons are the fastest animals in the world, reaching diving speeds of over 240 miles per hour when hunting. During normal flight, they cruise at about 40-55 mph, but their hunting dives are absolutely incredible to witness.
What do falcons eat?
Falcons are carnivorous birds that primarily hunt other birds like pigeons, ducks, and songbirds. They catch their prey mid-flight using their powerful talons and sharp beaks. Some smaller falcon species also eat insects, bats, and small mammals.
Where do falcons build their nests?
Falcons don't actually build traditional nests. Instead, they lay their eggs in shallow scrapes on cliff ledges, tall buildings, or bridge towers. City falcons often nest on skyscrapers, adapting perfectly to urban environments.
How good is a falcon's eyesight?
Falcons have extraordinary vision that's about 8 times sharper than human eyesight. They can spot a small bird from over a mile away and have special adaptations that prevent them from getting dizzy during high-speed dives.
How long do falcons live?
In the wild, falcons typically live 13-20 years, though some species can live longer. Peregrine falcons have been recorded living up to 25 years in captivity, where they're protected from predators and have reliable food sources.
