The Fastest Animal on Earth - The Peregrine Falcon

The fastest reliably recorded stoop of a peregrine falcon was 389 kilometres per hour. It steers like a guided missile, hits like a punch at full speed, and was nearly wiped out by a single pesticide within living memory. It recovered. It moved into our cities. And right now, one is probably perched on a building somewhere near you.#birdwatching #birdlovers #birds #britishbirds #ukwildlife #BIRDZ #naturepodcast #birdpodcast #ornithology #peregrine #peregrinefalcon #falcon #raptors #birdsofprey #ukraptors #wildlifeuk #uknature #birdnerds #conservationbirds #urbanwildlife #citybirds #britishwildlife #naturelover #rarebirds
