Peregrin Falcons have beautiful markings.
Peregrine falcons are best known for the incredible speeds they attain in a dive after their prey. They have been clocked in their 'stoop' or dive, at over 200 mph. This falcon, Zeus, was brought to Willowbrook Wildlife Center for care in 2004. He was found injured in a driveway in Elmhurst, probably due to a collision with a car.
