The fastest flying bird in the world is the Peregrine Falcon, which can dive at speeds of more than 320 kilometers (200 miles) per hour. The body of the Saker is about 35-50 cm (14-20 inches) long, with a wingspan of up to 1 meter (3.3 feet). They are mainly found in the Northern Hemisphere and feed on small mammals, birds and insects.
The reason why falcons can fly so fast is that they have a series of special physiological structures adapted to high-speed flight, such as sharp and short wings, aerodynamically shaped eyes, etc. When diving to hunt, the falcon will spread its wings into a relatively flat shape, and at the same time tighten its body to reduce drag, allowing it to better fly at high speeds.
