ABOUT BIRDS OF PREY:
- Feathered Fighter Jets: Birds of prey are the ultimate sky speed demons! Peregrine falcons can dive faster than a speeding car, clocking in at over 200 miles per hour! That's some serious beak-first fast food delivery.
- Night Owl Ninjas: Unlike most birds, owls are night owls (get it?). Their giant eyes see perfectly in the dark, making them silent hunters who can spot a wriggling worm from way up in the trees.
- Kite Flyers: Ever seen a bird hanging almost motionless in the sky? That's a kite soaring on air currents, using its amazing wings to search for yummy rodents below. They're like the gliders of the bird world!
- Recycling Crew: Vultures and buzzards (also called hawks in some places) are nature's clean-up crew. They eat already dead animals, keeping things tidy and stopping the spread of icky diseases. They might not be the prettiest eaters, but they do an important job!
- Hovering Hunters: Kestrels are masters of the mid-air pause. They can hover in place like tiny helicopters, scanning the ground for unsuspecting insects and lizards. Talk about a surprise lunch attack!
- Forest Phantoms: Harriers and goshawks are the camouflage kings of the bird world. Their streaky feathers help them blend in with trees and bushes, making them the ultimate ambush predators. They're the sneaky ninjas of the sky!
