Peregrine Falcon

Today, While I was cleaning out the cage of our pets, my sister came running to tell me that she had seen a Peregrine Falcon land in our garden. As soon as I heard, I dropped what I was doing and ran to see. and sure enough, about a metre away from me and my sister, was a majestic Peregrine Falcon!!
These deadly predators will mainly eat birds, for instance take a pigeon gliding along in the air, and about half a mile up is a Peregrine, watching every movement. Then it stoops, and dives, folding back its wings, and goes up to around 200 miles per hour, then stretches out its' talons, and kills the Pigeon!!!!
