What makes Peregrine Falcons fly better?

Peregrine falcons are not necessarily better fliers, but definitely better divers. Their streamlined bodies and small wings make for a very aerodynamic figure which helps them to get very strongly into their dive. The small surface area of their wings helps them to not lose control during a high-speed dive. Peregrine falcons are the fastest animal on earth, with dives reaching speeds of up to 200 mph.
