Brown-Falcon
A falcon is any species of raptor in the genus Falco. Adult falcons have thin tapered wings, which enable them to fly at high speed and to change direction rapidly.
The Brown Falcon, Falco berigora, is a member of the falcon genus found in the drier regions of Australia. Its specific name berigora is derived from an aboriginal name for the bird.
It differs from other falcons in that it has broader wings and longer legs. The Brown Falcon is about 45 cm in length.
Fledgling falcons, in their first year of flying, have longer flight feathers which makes their configuration more like that of a general-purpose bird such as a broadwing.
The falcons are part of the family Falconidae, which also includes the caracaras, Laughing Falcon, forest falcons, and falconets.
The Brown Falcon usually nests in old nests abandoned by other birds. This species occupies a large area of inland Australia.
