Peregrine Falcon
Day 39 / 365
Don’t Mind The Mess I Was Just Having A Snack!
Interesting Fact: Falcons are the swiftest birds of prey and are very muscular. In level flight the travel about 50 kilometers (31 miles) an hour. In a dive, called a “stoop” they reach speeds over 300 kilometers (186.33 miles) an hour! ( http://www.powayusd.com/teachers/lharvey/falcon2006/facts.htm )

Wow! I just got a “real” camera and I’m obsessed with catching beautiful images of birds but I’m still too noisy and scare them away. This is awesome.

Incredible shot.
Peregrines are the fastest animal alive, as well, when you clump them with all other species. Faster than a cheetah. Incredible creatures. Beautiful and amazing shot.

Awesome cropping shot.
Not a lot of cropping happens here. Thank you very much. đ
