Description
Peregrine Falcon Portrait - (Falco Peregrinus), also known as the Peregrine, and historically as the Duck Hawk in North America. The peregrine is renowned for its speed, reaching over 200 mph during its characteristic hunting stoop (high speed dive), making it the fastest member of the animal kingdom. According to a National Geographic TV program, the highest measured speed of a peregrine falcon is 242 mph.
I photographed this Peregrine Falcon by the Palisades Interstate Parkway in New York.
