Description:
A falcon ready for hunting. Once the hood is removed the bird will fly up to a height of 1000 feet and wait for its prey. When the moment comes it will power dive to the ground at a speed of 360 kilometers per hour making it the fastest animal on earth. The bird in the image is a hybrid a mixture of peregrine, gyr and saker falcon. A combination of different types of skills and dexterities have made the bird a truly majestic hunter.
