FALCON FACTS
The Peregrine Falcon is the fastest bird (and animal!) of the world. It can fly up to 320 km/h when it dives to catch a prey! Nesting usually starts in April and incubation last for a month or so until the eggs hatch. Falcons nest in couple, one incubating eggs/taking care of the baby falcons, while the other go hunting for preys to provide for the family. They usually switch position really often!
Inspiration from this game (and falcon sounds) came from a livecam streaming real falcons nesting, that you can see here:
