The fastest animal in the world, the world's most widespread raptor and one of the coolest. The fastest speed ever recorded by one is 389 km/h or 242 mph.
Sometimes, when you are feeling down a familiar face can make all the difference. Just seeing her face made my day. Not sure the feeling was mutual ;).

The fastest dive by a bird is that of a peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus), which has been estimated as reaching a terminal velocity of approximately 300 km/h (186 mph) when in a diving stoop. At this point the peregrine falcon is the fastest animal.
Peregrine Falcon
The fastest animal on the planet
But fast for a very good reason., it's nutritional needs requires it to hunt down prey and the reality of that is all to be seen here in this picture
Nature simultaneously at it's most magnificent and at it's cruelest
Sometimes you just have to stop and take it in
You can travel the seven seas., climb the highest mountains., dive to the bottom of every ocean
But you'll never find anything quicker than what you looking at here
Breathtaking to think of
The Peregrine Falcon is one of the fastest and powerful birds in the world with eyes as good as telescopes and has extraordinary agility.
Hooded Crows use their intelligence to identify threats. Studies show that crows are remarkably efficient at picking out potential environmental threats. So instead of waiting until they’re attacked, crows often take proactive action to scare birds, animals, or even humans from their habitats.
One of the main techniques crows use to defend their territories is mobbing.
Some crows are happy to take on large birds on their own or in a group. This crow was on its own and showed no fear. Single crows have been observed violently pursuing eagles that are many times bigger than them.
The battle raged on but who was the winner.
I watched a group of three juvenile Trumpeter Swans on the pond in back today. Interestingly, they would work on one end of the lake and then launch with a little bit of flight time to the other end of the lake, never getting much height from the water as they did so. I suspect that it's not only a faster way to get from one side to the other but it's a great way of working those wings in anticipation of migrating south for the winter!
Taken 25 September 2020 near Wasilla, Alaska.
Watching the fastest animal on the planet in action was fascinating, getting a decent shot was another story :-) after spending two days with these raptors i was rewarded with a bunch of nice inflight shots...Southern California
Continuing my year in review series with this handsome Pronghorn Buck photographed in Custer State Park, South Dakota.
Like my bison bull post yesterday, this shot was taken during our third trip of the year which started in southwestern South Dakota featuring two spectacular parks (Badlands NP and Custer SP).
The fastest land animal in the world, a cheetah can reach 112km/h in just three seconds – that's faster than a sports car accelerates! Its body has evolved for speed, with long legs, an elongated spine, adapted claws to grip the ground and a long tail for balance.
Taken in the afternoon at Masai Mara National Park.
Many thanks for your visit, comments, invites and favs...it is always appreciated ...
Happy Caturday
Graffiti artists at the HOPE Outdoor Gallery on Castle Hill, a graffiti park that was located from 2011 to 2019 at Baylor and 11th St. on the site of a failed condo development project from the Eighties. A new condo project in booming Austin resulted in closure of the site in 2019.
Austin's graffiti artists will have a new, much larger site at which to express themselves in early 2022. Under construction now (July 2021) is a new HOPE Outdoor Gallery graffiti park, located in East Austin across from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. The 17-acre, open-air art park will include large scale public art installations, curated audio and art exhibitions, murals from local, national, and international artists.
With a population of just over one million residents, Austin is the 10th largest city in the United States. The Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos Metropolitan Area, now with a population of 2.3M, also is the fastest growing large metropolitan area in the country having added more than 579,000 residents since 2010.
I've seen interesting positions in the air from Bald Eagles but this immature Bald Eagle showed me something different! It decided the best way down was just about straight down.

Met zingende tractiemotoren zoeft motorwagen 160 van de voormalige Chicago North Shore and Milwaukee Railroad over de dubbelsporige vrije baan. De Electroliners van de North Shore Line bereikten tussen Dempster Street en North Chicago Junction in de normale dienst een snelheid van 90 mph. Dat is maar liefst 140 km per uur! De North Shore stond niet voor niets bekend als "America's fastest interurban".
De afgebeelde motorwagen 160 uit 1915 was niet geschikt voor die hoogste dienstsnelheid. Desondanks konden met deze door de J. G. Brill Company in Philadelphia gebouwde motorwagen ook hoge snelheden behaald worden. Deze motorwagen deed bijna vijftig jaar dienst tussen Chicago en Milwaukee. Tegenwoordig is het fraaie rijtuig te bewonderen op de museumlijn van het Illinois Railway Museum bij het plaatsje Union.

LNER 4468 Mallard is a LNER Class A4 4-6-2 steam locomotive built by the London & North Eastern Railway at Doncaster Works, England in 1938. It is historically significant as the holder of the world speed record for steam locomotives at 126 mph (203 km/h).
Those mountain posts recently? No, I didn't hike up...though in the morning at the top it was brutal enough with -15, strong winds and snow being whipped around. Fun! 😁 always good to be out with the camera. Good to feel the elements. At the halfway station later in the day, the sky cleared, snow still being blown off the trees. This shot is riddled with imperfections, but who cares, for all the problems with the image it reminds me of a grand day out after a long time with no landscape opportunities.
Pink Ceiba, the flowers of the world's fastest growing tree! The inside of its trunk is so soft that it has 4 inch spikes to protect it from predators... giving it its nickname, Monkey Tree, because a agile monkey can climb it!
The Ceiba tree figures an important part in the mythologies of pre-Columbian Mesoamerican cultures. Several Amazonian tribes of eastern Peru believe deities live in Ceiba tree species throughout the jungle. The Maya civilization believed that Yaaxché, often depicted as a Ceiba trunk, connects the planes of the Underworld (Xibalba), the terrestrial realm and the skies. Unmistakable clusters of thick conical thorns on the Ceiba trunk were reproduced during the Classical Period on ceramic burial urns and incense holders by the southern lowland Maya.
Modern Maya still respectfully leave the tree standing when harvesting forest timber. The Ceiba tree is represented by a cross and serves as an important architectural motif in the Temple of the Cross Complex at Palenque.
Ceiba pentandra produces a light and strong fiber (kapok) used throughout history to fill life preservers, mattresses, pillows, tapestries, and dolls. Kapok has recently been replaced in commercial use by synthetic fibers. The oils of Ceiba seeds are extracted to make soap and fertilizers. The Ceiba continues to be commercialized in Asia especially in Java, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines.

The Pronghorn is the fastest land mammal in North America. In this image, the speedy Pronghorn buck is backed by the largest land mammal in North America, the Bison. South Dakota has healthy populations of both species occupying similar habitats, including Custer State Park where this shot was taken.

A small herd of Pronghorn, the fastest mammal in North America, assessing the potential threat of the rolling red Toyota blind. Inside the RRTB: Page the photographer and Tsougrianis the filmmaker. Outcome: after posing in nice morning backlight, this group joined the larger group and meandered away from the park road. Several mature bucks worked to round up the stragglers. Fun to watch.

The cheetah or hunting leopard (Acinonyx jubatus) is an atypical member of the cat family that is unique in its speed, while lacking climbing abilities. Therefore it is placed in its own genus, Acinonyx.
It is the fastest land animal, reaching speeds between 110 and 120 km/h in short bursts covering distances up to 460 m, and has the ability to accelerate from 0 to 110 km/h in three seconds.
The adult cheetah weighs from 40 to 65 kg. Its total body length is from 115 to 150 cm, while the tail can measure up to 85 cm in length. Males tend to be slightly larger than females and have slightly bigger heads. The cheetah's chest is deep and its waist is narrow. The coarse, short fur of the cheetah is tan with round black spots measuring from 2 to 3 cm across, affording it some camouflage while hunting. There are no spots on its white underside, but the tail has spots, which merge to form four to six dark rings at the end. The cheetah has a small head with high-set eyes.
There are several geographically isolated populations of cheetah, all of which are found in Africa or Southwestern Asia. The cheetah likes to live in an open biotope, such as semi-desert, prairie, and thick brush, though it can be found in a variety of habitats.
______________________________
De jachtluipaard, gepard of cheeta(h) (Acinonyx jubatus) is een groot katachtig roofdier dat nog voorkomt in Afrika en Iran. Het is de enige nog levende soort uit het geslacht Acinonyx.
De jachtluipaard is met een maximum snelheid van 110 à 120 km het snelste landdier ter wereld. De kat is aangepast aan jagen met een korte, zeer snelle sprint. In drie seconden rent het dier van stilstand naar 110 km. Hij is als een hazewindhond slank, flexibel en gespierd gebouwd met een krachtige borst, een lange staart en voor een katachtige zeer lange poten, waarmee hij zich kan afzetten.
Een volwassen jachtluipaard heeft een licht gele vacht, die bedekt is met kleine, ronde, zwarte vlekken. De onderzijde en borst zijn bijna geheel wit. De kop is vrij klein, met kleine oren en grote, oranje ogen. Het voorhoofd en de wangen hebben zeer kleine zwarte vlekken. Van de binnenste ooghoeken tot de mond loopt een zwarte streep, en ook de onderlippen zijn zwart.
De staart is gevlekt, maar heeft bij de top een reeks van zwarte ringen en eindigt in een zwarte staartpunt.
De vorm van de ringen en de hoeveelheid verschilt per individu, vergelijkbaar met de vingerafdruk voor de mens.
Een volwassen dier weegt tussen 35 en 65 kg, maar gemiddeld 50 kg. De kop-romplengte is 110 tot 150 cm, en de staart kan 65 tot 90 cm lang zijn. De schouderhoogte is gemiddeld 80 cm.
De jachtluipaard leeft in droge, open savannen en in gebieden met struiken. Hij kan overal overleven waar voldoende prooidieren zijn en het terrein open genoeg is om te kunnen rennen. Hij heeft een voorkeur voor gebieden met schuilplaatsen, vanwaar hij prooi kan besluipen.
Deze opname is gemaakt in Burgers Safari, het safaripark binnen Burgers Zoo.
