Peregrine Falcon

== Roleplays that feature this creature ==
== Other info ==
Pairs will hunt cooperatively, with one's job being to scatter the flock and the other swooping to attack one of the birds in the flock. Usually, the one who scatters is the male while the one who swoops & attacks is the female. The task of incubating eggs is primarily left to the mother while the father brings her food. After the chicks hatch, both parents will hunt to provide food for their offspring.
Newly hatched chicks are covered in fluffy white down. They start molting into juvenile feathers at the age of 2 weeks and 4 days, and start exercising their wings in preparation to fledge at the age of 3 weeks and 6 days. They finish molting into their juvenile plumage at the age of 1 month. They fledge at the age of 1 month, 1 week and 3 days to 1 month, 1 week and 4 days. After fledging, they remain with their parents until reaching the age of about 3-4 months, which is when they finally bid farewell to their parents and start life on their own.
They molt into their adult plumage at the age of 3 years.
