My sister has this falcon flying around her office building again in Quebec city.
Look at the head and the body is at a 90 degree angle.
I find this a very interesting picture.

No but she seen it taking one apart.
I seen one taking a black duck in mid air at Fundy National park a while back.
It was done at very high speed, the duck did not have a chance or seen it coming from above. |
