What do falcons do?
They capture their primarily avian prey in open country by virtue of superior speed, either in powered flight or in a characteristic dive called a stoop. A stooping falcon folds its wings and dives from a high perch or while flying overhead, and may exceed 320 kilometers per hour (200 miles per hour).
