Peregrine Falcon

Very Good used hardcover.  Bumped corners. 

Reaching speeds of 200 miles per hour, the peregrine falcon is famous as one of the world's fastest birds.  However, its penchant for choosing inaccessible places to breed, feed and roost means that few people are well acquainted with it habits and behavior.  

This book offers a window into that rarely seen world, thanks to a combination of high quality photographs, and beautifully written text, depicting the birds hunting, courting and raising their young.
