Best Answer

How fast a bird can dive depends on the type of bird. Some birds rarely dive at all, and others, such as the Peregrine Falcon, rely on diving to catch their prey and are excellent at it. (Peregrine Falcons are, by the way, considered technically the fastest animal on the planet, because their dive speed has been clocked at over 200 mph.)
