Peregrine Falcon portrait, Australia

The remarkable vision of the Peregrine Falcon surpasses that of a human by eight times. Soaring high in the sky, it can spot prey as far as 3 km (1.86 miles) away, before entering its impressive high-speed dive (of up to 240 miles per hour). Attacking from above provides this feathered jet fighter both stealth and speed to catch its prey.
