Congratulations on your SOTD award!!! :D GREAT PHOTO
Wow! Awesome spotting! Congrats, Akshay. :)
oh my goodness. great spotting!
Great shot
Fun fact! Peregrine falcons may reach speeds of 200 miles per hour when diving for prey. They use their balled-up talons to knock out smaller birds mid flight, and then snatch them before they hit the ground.
