One of the adaptations is its speed

As you know, the falcon has amazing abilities to fly at the fastest of speeds, but that is only one of the many adaptations of the Peregrine Falcon. Another adaptation of the Peregrine is its feet and beak. If it wasn't for the feet, and beak it would starve because the feet and beak help the falcon grab its prey.

When this bird is hunting in the air it will use its speed to kill its prey. It can fly up to speeds of 200 miles per hour. Due to the size difference between the male and female they each take different prey species.

The falcon has adaptations for flying too. When this bird is flying it uses a small cone in its nostril that protrudes to breath. This adaptation was researched, and engineers began to use it as a design for the plane engines.

he Peregrine Falcon has extremely light weight bones as all birds do. Their speed, the way they breathe, and their bone structure allows for quick attack.

When the bird is in its natural habitat, its body temperature stays the same no matter how hot or cold the air is.

From the adaptations here I am sure you can truly see that the Peregrine Falcon is a wonder of the world.

Rivaled only by the Osprey, the Peregrine Falcon has one of the most global distributions of any bird of prey. This falcon is found on every continent except Antarctica, and lives in a wide variety of habitats from tropics, deserts, and maritime to the tundra, and from sea level to 12,000 feet. Peregrines are highly migratory in the northern part of their range.

The barn owl is another bird found nearly worldwide.

  • Long wings and tail for speed
  • A streamlined shape
  • Nasal cones that disturb airflow, preventing shock to lungs in flight
  • Wings that can change shape in flight for minute adjustments

Falcons have been seen diving on other birds and "punching" them with balled up claws. They have also been known to scrape the belly of a bird then punch it so that it is weaker for the kill.
