The Stoop - 1

The peregrine falcon in a stoop is known to reach speed of up to 200 miles per hour. Watching and trying to get this type of image can be humbling. The mist of Niagara Falls was thick this weekend and the temperature was in the high 20's Celsius range.

 

This image is of the male falcon "Duncan" going into a stoop as he crossed a brilliant rainbow created by the mist of Niagara Falls.
