couple pretty awesome clips of Falcons diving to catch
prey. One shot
is from a mini camera mounted on its back. pretty
amazing.
There was a TV program in the UK about the ultimate
avian predators which finished with the Peregrine falcon,
and some fantastic footage of one following down the
presenter who had made a tandem parachute jump from
a balloon - at 150mph or more it was simply toying
with the lure it was flying to. However I've also
seen footage of them hunting pigeons, and they certainly
don't always get their bird.
