The Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus), also known as the Peregrine, and historically as the “Duck Hawk” in North America, is a bird of prey in the family Falconidae.

Peregrine Falcon Unit Study and Lapbook by Tina Robertson

What does it look like? It is a large, crow-sized falcon, with a blue-gray back, barred white underparts, and a black head and “moustache”. It can reach speeds over 200 mph in a stoop, making it the fastest creature on the planet. As is common with bird-eating raptors, the female is much bigger than the male.

About Peregrine Falcons

Peregrine Falcon Unit Study and Lapbook

What are some other kinds of falcons? Falcons are Birds of Prey. Other types of falcons are the Saker Falcon, Gyrfalcon, Lanner Falcon and Merlin.

What do falcons eat?  Well depending on which falcon, but the peregrine falcon mostly eats mid-size birds.

My children enjoy watching you tube videos but I supervise them pretty closely. Use your discretion in viewing this one. My youngest, it bothers him that the falcon actually kills prey.

So I am sensitive to that for him. So just wanted you to know even though the video is not gory, etc. It is just beautiful showing them soar high above..

    We are reading and are on the 3rd book in the My Side of the Mountain series by Jean George. The 3rd book, Frightful’s Mountain, is how the action is played out from ‘Frightfuls’ (the Peregrine Falcon) point of view. We were fortunate enough to see a Falconry display at the local Renaissance Festival this week and we plan on visiting our local raptor rehabilitation center very soon. This unit study is perfect for rounding out this wonderful literature lesson. Thank you for your work.
