Peregrine Falcon in flight landing on branch with wings extended

A Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus) on a perch at the San Jacinto Wildlife Area in Riverside County in southern California. Numbers of this nearly world-wide breeder fell precipitously in the 1960s from thinning of its eggshells from widespread usage of the insecticide DDT. Since the banning of that substance, this falcon has made a remarkable recovery and is now fairly common in some areas and has been removed from its endangered status. It is renowned for its aerial abilities as it preys mainly on flying birds. It has been measured in a dive at over 240 mph, making it the fastest of all birds.

Steppe eagles arrive at their summer breeding grounds around April, at the start of spring. Large nests, up to a metre wide, are constructed from twigs and lined with various materials, such as old rags and camel dung. While the nests are usually placed on the ground in a position allowing a good view of the surroundings, as a result of habitat alteration and persecution, nests are increasingly being found in trees, bushes and on artificial structures. The female lays a clutch of between one and three eggs which are incubated for 45 days, with the chicks being brooded for a further 55 to 65 days before fledging. The steppe eagle is remarkably long lived, reaching up to 41 years in captivity.
