The Peregrine Falcon reaches speeds at over 200 mph (389 km/h) making it the fastest member of the animal kingdom! A local Raptor Rehab Center gave a demostration with some of their "Feathered Friends" near our home last week. I volunteered to do some pictures of the event -

I just love birds of pray. They to me are so stealth, deadly, and beautiful all at the same time. You see one of these birds and knows its very good at tracking down and capturing its pray. Beautiful colors here, I love the presentation and the beauty of the bird you bring out Jeff.
